In case you end up rerunning the contest using READ or RESCORE you want to
make sure whatever abbreviation you reduce the actual entered value to is
included in the list. For example
CWLZ = COW would not be okay because CWLZ would not then be a valid entry to
type.
It would need to be
CWLZ = COW, CWLZ
In these examples the COWL, COWLIT, and COWLITZ are redundant (COW is a subset
of each...the first three letters match).
