Two words : typos happen. One can't judge a Usenet post by the
same standards that one judges a print article by. In print,
one can proofread and correct. Online, one is in a rush to
get one's post up, and then there it is, up for all to see,
and one can't fix it. So cut the guy some slack. The next
person to stumble might be you.
