Very interesting, I read this through the first time with no problems; as if everything were spelled correctly. Imagine that!

When a writer proof reads her own work she tends to see what is supposed to be there, not what is actually on the page.
That is the reason we have to have that most necessary of all evils -- an editor.

That is why both the secretary and the attorney proof read legal docs, sometimes. :nervous:
