Hilarious Typo's [Was:"Lone Coder" - AdTI, funded by Microsoft...]

[Scott Elcomb]

Ok, After re-reading this post I just couldn't help myself.

I made one of those wonderfully funny Freudian-slip-type-typo's today.
 Or at least, I think so:

"> historical obeservations/refreshers' are useful;"

That was not supposed to have any bearing on the recent North American
attention to the word "obese."

Interesting though that I could easily connect such a statement to
previous TLUG conversations on the value of RAD tools... and to my own
plans for Atomic OS.

Anyway, anyone else have funnies that they accidentally posted online?

Take care, all.  =)

rested on their trust in the wisdom of a well-informed citizenry,
their ingenious design for checks and balances, and their belief that
the rule of reason is the natural sovereign of a free people." - Al

safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."  - Benjamin Franklin
