[+1] - flyboy804 - 09/29/2003I first thought that the third error was the paragraph itself; since there are only two errors; but if that were the case there would be three errors. Such a conundrum!!
[+1] - dupre - 09/29/2003I think flyboy804 is right! The third error is an error in statement-of-fact! Deceiving!

I don't know... maybe I was wrong about the comma, and it was lack of indention.

But the fiendish cackle makes me think its some evil, sneaky something ...

BBB, what osso said. This is the kind of fun thing that can go on for months.

I'm still disturbed by the fact that once we accept as the third error the fact that there are only two, we automatically have three. But once we have three, the third becomes invalid. Someone, please do something to stop this throbbing in my head!!!
