similar but not quite the same...
The other day there was a documentary on tv about ants. The presenter tried to introduce Tasmania (a state of Australia, separated by a small body of water) and it went something along the lines of "Tasmania, a small island to the south of Australia." Now how does that sound to you? Like a foreign country?! I think the presenter was British, but its still no excuse!

I thought of that, but then I thought, "Do I really want to do this at this point in my life?" Or perhaps it was, "Do I really want to write for a publication the obviously doesn't give a damn about its quality?"

scary
I don't know what bothers me more..that the author didn't try to get all the facts and spellings right, or that the editors of the zine didn't have a fact checker.
