David is an occasional blogger, software engineer, Nintendo fanboy, liberal, news magazine addict, voracious TiVo user, and bibliophile. He was born in St. Louis, grew up in southern Indiana, and returned to St. Louis to attend Washington University. He hasn't managed to escape yet. He's a fan of free wine tastings, too many tv shows to name, and eating out. David makes his living developing web applications used internally by his employer. He doesn't blog about work because he's heard too many stories about that causing workplace troubles. There's more on the about page. |

I am faced with a dilemma of sorts. you see, it is my sincerest wish that our readers should consider the name "negative273" synonomous with "quality." I truly believe that is the key to an unparalleled weblog viewing experience. and yet, I find in the post below at least four easy to spot typographical errors. what message does this send to our readers? if we do not take the time to spell check, how can we ask our readers to take the time to seriously consider the deeply important issues we raise daily on this site?
but what can I do? it would be unethical for me to modify one of daves posts, even if it was just correcting errors. its simply a line I refuse to cross. and yet, if I do nothing, our thousands, our tens of thousands of daily viewers, will see these errors and take their hits to more conscientious weblogs. and everything we worked so hard to build will be lost.
god, something has to be done soon. its nearly morning.
Id better go wake up dave.
