Yes.  Seems like the sort of thing that an American writer would do ;)  
I've written for three Linux magazines and I always try to make sure 
that I'm using the right past or future tense and that I have got my 
facts straight before the editor comes back to me with some ear ache.

Wish Slashdot was better at this kind of thing than it is.  I think a 
lot of stuff on the internet is probably a lot better.
