Location: UK		Jim,you can only edit for a short period and then thats it!. I cringe sometimes when I look back and see mistakes I cant put right. Sometimes I am in a real rush,hurrying to do posts before making breakfast,and there just isnt time for careful scrutiny. Then there are my mistakes glaring at me forever
I I read once about a printer of the Bible back in the 17th century who inadvertantly left out the word ''not'' in ''thou shalt not commit adultery',which certainly went down well with adulterers but very badly with the Church!'. He was heavily fined 300, about $80000 today, the bibles were all recalled and burned,and he lost his printing license! I think there are only about a dozen copies left in existence.
