how typos propigate in our c+p society[views:1516][posts:12]______________________________________ [Aug 12,2004 3:40pm - the_reverend ""] ok, so I made this tool at work from a PDF I got from the CIO's office. I guess in one of the early copies, the word "time to assess" was spelled "time to asses". I just c+p'd it into my tool... then I made a webpage version of the tool loading the same XML document... time to asses... then someone c+p'd from me.. another guy made a flash version that loading a html version.. time to asses... anyhow, I just had someone print out an executive level presentation and it's right there.. time to asses. oopies. |
