<p style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">I cannot believe I wrote that!</p>
<p style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">But it is a good example of
something we have discussed on another forum, about the growing
tendency some poeple have noticed towards making such errors when
typing on a computer. It was never noticed by the same writers when
using a typewriter but was admitted ( confessed to?) by a number of
keen contributors, all of whom have been involved in IT for many years
and should have no excuse for not typing accurately.</p><p style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">Has anyone on this forum noticed themselves automatically typing one homonym for another?</p>
<p style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">And just to prove I am not losing my marbles : copies of the book are for sale</p>
