that's a "Ch" pronounced as a "K"
Computer skills I should have:
Objective C, C#, Java, MEL. Python, C++, XML, JavaScript, XSLT, HTML, SQL, CSS, FXScript, Clips, SOAR, ActionScript, OpenGL, DirectX

Basically select cleanup from the edit poly menu and run it, this will hilite any geometry thats incorrect. Then its usually a case of merging the points in tose areas and then delete your history. Should all be fine by then.
