I've seen many postings that looked a lot worse with no apology from
the author.  If what Mr. Watson posted was really uncorrected except
for the brackets, I'd say his main problem is that he's too worried
about correctness.  Most people have trouble proofreading their own
writing, and most people have trouble finding "the the" in any written
sample.  As a secondary problem, his ability to catch errors may be
below average, but (as an untrained native user of the language) I'd
say his style is well within the normal range.
