Thank you so much for pointing that out. I will strive to use the spell checker in lieu of haste for future posts.

I'll dispense with the usual 'you hit me first' and your scientific name calling .

I said it was a typo

Is this what you so eloquently refer to as "quote mining"?

What you posted was...

I see a couple of typos, but no grammatical errors.

So are you telling me there are no grammatical errors or are you telling me you don't see any? Maybe the question should be are there no grammatical errors because YOU don't see them?

No. Quote mining is when you take one phrase out of context and try to use it to pretend the author said something he didn't intend to say - in fact, often the exact opposite of what he was trying to say.

I'm telling you what I told you. I see typos, but no grammatical errors. If you disagree, feel free to identify same.
