David McGrath wrote a local view, “A few ‘no thanks' are in order today".
I sent him a note of thanks, but when I sent it, I realized that the address was wrong. The first four characters of his address were not included. In the Olive Edition of the DNT the email address was split. (Olive is software that displays the printed edition as is and then will open up single articles. It has many of its own problems.)
I thought it might be that the opinion editor was being careless. That would be ironic because he always seems to find something to change in almost all of my letters or commentaries. So much so that I have given up sending anything to the DNT.
I looked at the DNT on my iPad this morning, but I am using my MacBook Air to write this blog entry. The Olive Edition opens with an error on this computer, and nobody has fixed the problem yet. So, I looked at the web edition, and surprise! The email address is correct at the bottom of the article.
That means that the opinion editor probably never saw the result once it left his computer to the automated process to be put in all the various formats.
And probably nobody double checks all of these errors because the owners won’t provide enough resources to check and correct all of these irritating errors.
