Yea, I hate when I accidentally a word. At least he didn't accidentally

I think you a grammatical error there.

Honestly I think if you're going to pull people up on 
grammar/spelling errors you really need to do yourself a favour 
and not have the same type of error in your own post. It 
undermines your case somewhat and, frankly, makes you look like a 
bit of a dick.


Apologies in advance if this was a well-meaning post but to be 
honest the tone didn't seem that friendly.

Really, that seemed unnecessary :)

I can't speak for Andrej, but personally I think corrections for 
published articles are helpful, and TWiD has a wider audience 
than this forum (or at least so I hope). Typos in a post with 
typo corrections don't change the validity of the corrections, 
and I did not find anonymous' post mean in any way.


Plus, I think that at least the second mistake was on purpose and 
meant as a joke:

That one was on purpose, just like yours.

I don't think Adam minds my nagging. I hope he doesn't.

I sure don't mean to berate anyone for making typos. I wouldn't point them 
out in a forum post. But TWID is like two or three steps up from that.

Ah in that case I unreservedly reiterate the aforementioned 
apology :-) Good point re. the wider distribution. It's just 
s tricky sometimes figuring out intent on the web. 
Adam's someone I hold in very high esteem, and we Scots tend to 
react quite strongly to a slight ( perceived or otherwise) 
against those we consider our buddies :-) It just looked like you 
were taking a few potshots for fun , but given the wider context 
makes sense...

No problem at all. I confess I slapped this one together in a bit 
of a rush: yesterday didn't feel like Sunday to me (it was a 
special weekend in my church so my routine was all changed) so I 
forgot to do it and instead quickly pieced it together today in
