I thought this was a discussion about search algorithms. disappoint.
rules?
1. turn one word into another using steps
2. 1 step is either inserting or removing exactly one letter.
3. spaces and/or punctuation doesn't matter, parrot -> par root
4. each step must result in known names, words, or abbreviations.
