You just infringed my patent on making unprovoked stupid mistakes in posts to the Pg mailing lists!
I thought I had a protected monopoly on appearing stupid in these posts.

Such mistakes are so easy to make! One knows what one has written, so one does not check adequately!
Recently I made 3 silly mistakes in about five lines, but fortunately, someone was able to decode what I had written and said it was useful.
(Patent trolling is becoming really big business, so it would not surprise me if someone actually patented a sophisticated version of the patent I pretended to have above!)
