Thats almost annoying as the press and un-inciated habit of adding a 'The' infront of locomotive names that are not prempted with a 'the' (For example the is a picture of Sherwood Forester hauling The Jacobite on Google Earth ant the caption states "The Sherwood Forester")  |
Listen, this is not personal, but you have made more mistakes in your post than he has in his article. We can't all be good at everything, and he has just tried to interpret what he was told, or what he read in the press release. His errors would not invalidate his article to most readers, who would either not be that interested anyway or would say "ooh that's nice, I went there for my diploma in aromatherapy."
So, to correct your bit:
Not "Thats almost annoying as the press and un-inciated habit of adding a 'The' infront of locomotive names that are not prempted with a 'the'"
That's almost
as annoying as the press and
uninitiated habit of adding a 'The'
in front of locomotive names that are not
preceded with a 'the'
These mistakes do not really annoy me, they just emphasise that very few people get everything right to the last and finest detail, they just do their best. And yes, they would probably "make errors like that about anything else", it's just you either wouldn't know or wouldn't be that bothered.
