proofreading..

Has anyone else seen the light-up signboards on the beltway that say "speed limit stricktly enforced"? Or at least, I think that was what they said, but the only thing I really have registered in driving by them is that they were trying to spell strictly with a "k" in it...

But I went north today to play with artifacts in the lab, instead of south to be potentially rained on, so I don't know if they've fixed it since yesterday.

GAH! yes. they're everywhere! it was't until i saw the second one spelled that way that i believed they'd done that. *sigh* it's so hard to get high school-educated (and some colleges!) people that can do such a simple thing as SPELL.

ps, my problem is that i can spell, but i can't type as fast as i think. also, as previously noted, the space bar and i are having a disagreement.

This is absolutely horrifying.
