The Typo Eradication Advancement League

[mrk]

This is Epic Waffles right here

Boston man Jeff Deck finally got fed up with all of the misspellings he was seeing in public that he decided to do something about it. He assembled a group of four that will travel the country until June, fixing typos as they discover them.

The Typo Eradication Advancement League, as they call themselves, use things like adhesive stickers and chalk to make the fixes, all the while keeping a record of their work on Deck's blog at www.jeffdeck.com/

Deck's passion for fixing typos dates back to some spelling bee wins in junior high. "It seems that a lot of errors revolve around the apostrophe, that eternally misunderstood punctuation mark," he noted.

Eye halve a spelling chequer
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.

Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait a weigh.

As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the error rite
Its rare lea ever wrong.

Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect awl the weigh
My chequer tolled me sew.

I know how he feels, people who use typos when using the terms Itunes and Ipod need to be kicked in the nuts.
