The system that prints our shipment labels stripped "var" from customer and street names. Sorry Halvar, you're now known as Hal. Customer names wheren't so bad, the mail service got the right people anyway, but reducing streetnames like "Vardegade" to "degade" is a bit more troublesome.

They never told me what the bug was, only that they fixed it. I have some idea though.
