Thank you microsoft word

I'm writing a research statement, and was talking about the need for scientists with interdisciplinary skill sets in order to analyze all the vast amounts of data generated by the human genome project, microarrays, and the like.

I originally typed "skill sets" as one word ("skillsets"). Of course, Word told me I was wrong. In it's place, it suggested "skillets," which actually made me laugh out loud.

Because indeed, what the scientific community truly needs are interdisciplinary skillets.
