KevPod from Arcata, California submits this disturbing newspaper ad clipping and wonders:What rational explanation could there be for having a lowercase and uppercase L in the same word?
It couldn't have been a space issue - there's room for the capital L in the middle. Was the person in a hurry? Or just CIUELESS?
Yes, it looks like the copy editor was in a hurry. But he probably didn't forget to capitalize this first L in AVAlABLE. Rather, it looks like he left the entire L out of AVAILABLE. A visually stunning example, nonetheless!
Hmmm...actually, this is a misspelled word. See "available." Not really lowercase L, but still a good one to catch our attention! The editor should be fired for leaving out the "L."
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a case of bad spelling rather than a genuine lowercase L.
ReplyDeleteEven so the proof reader should be taken out and shot at dawn.
Yes, I too believe that he simply left out the first 'L'..
ReplyDeleteThere you go again assuming that all unknown people are MALE-- assturd.
ReplyDeleteYour site sucks. Entitled shit.
