I just think this kind of funny. This is one of the "rules" for the new tri-state board. (They might have thought about proof reading it first)

"3) Keep it accurate:

Make sure that your posts do NOT contain "typos" or misspelling of words. Members found posting such inaccurate information (spelling wise) will be notified. If the problem persists, the local moderator will be asked to delete the posts will misspelling of words. Posts with "typos" are difficult for your viewers to read. It is also to some point an annoyance to the rest of the board and will be acknowledged in a negative way. Safe your self as well as others the trouble and use Microsoft Word and then copy it into the message body on the board if you are not sure of a word."

Dr. S was just quoting, verbatim, one of the rules for the new board. It isn't his typo, it is theirs. The original writer may well have followed his own advice, but the MS Word spell-checker doesn't catch everything.

Yea, that is exactly how "rule #3" appears on their site. A rule against misspelling in your posts seems a bit much, no? :roll:

It looks like a very nice site they have. Well organized. I wish them well. But they seem very much into controlling everthing and everyone. They need to lighten up a bit. Scanning is supposed to be fun.
