I don't think embarasing. We're all human and it's a typo. Typos exist everywhere.

Anyway, I fixed this as well as others you reported on IRC, thanks again! You and ne1uno have been going at it making our docs much better.

I didn't tell you to find them either. I had already copied the ones that you had pasted. I merely said that it would be better to put them into a text file and when done email me or something, as it's hard to go back through IRC and find those reports when you may be off IRC for many hours at a time and then this weekend, possibly all weekend. That's all.

You've done a lot of work finding those errors and it is very helpful.
