Hey,

This is an imformal channel, spelling police are not allowed :-)

Seriously, would you interrupt people in the middle of a conversation if
they got their sentences/words wrong, just to tell them they were wrong?
There was no misunderstanding in that post, so there was no need for any
corrections. Seeing people correct other peoples spelling for the hell of
upsets me, much more than any spelling mistake would.

BTW, you should train yourself out of being a US-UK translater outside of
office hours :-)

Have Fun
