One typo and it's all meaningless.

Actually, that was not a typo. A typo is inadvertent. Using "loosing" instead of "losing" is a rather common event these days. I see it so much, I have stopped pointing it out. This is not to impugn your intelligence, but one should be sure that the choice of words and spellings is correct when commenting on education, lest one became an example supporting one's own argument. Another point is that a spell check will totally miss this, and spell check is no substitute for a proper education. (I'm being very careful to use correct phrasing and proper spelling and punctuation right now. How did I do?)
