The "purely speculative field" opened to mathematical research by Axel Thue about 80 years ago - combinatorics of words - has found many applications since. The original problem of avoidance of squares in arbitrarily long words on a small (ternary) alphabet continues to be a source of inspiration. The notion was recently generalized by Bean, Ehrenfeucht, and McNulty to the problem of avoidance of an arbitrary word. In this form the problem perfectly fits into the framework of universal algebra. The idea goes back to the application of square-free words to semigroup varieties by Burris, Nelson, and Jezek.
