Actually... the first thing I did was spell-check the incoming message, and
noticed that it was incorrect in at least one instance in the original.
When I typed in the aside, I had actually spelled it correctly, and noticed
when I did a "final" check that it was NOT flagged [and I didn't hit "ignore
all"], so I carefully checked the original and saw it had two instances of
the word, and one with the transposed letters, so I un-corrected it so my
example matched reality...
