Good catch. I real man admits when he is wrong. At least this time.

No problem. I fat-finger stuff sometimes too, everyone does, especially in unimportant writing like forum posts.

Thing is, we know better, and in important writing (business stuff, etc.) we'd carefully proofread and thus never make such errors.

I do the corrections here not for people like us, but rather for the people who really don't know these errors ARE errors. Because of that, even in their important writing that they self-proofread, they won't ever catch these errors. They'll go through life with everyone cringing at their homophone errors and other major errors even in very important documents while they remain clueless about it and think that everything is fine.
