Sometimes.  Other times, it's short-sighted <not quite a pun), bastards who 
rely on spell checkers and pay no attention to context.  I know that there's a 
word for two words that sound alike with different meanings, but my brain has 
taken a brief vacation and I can't come up with it.  Words such as there and 
their.
Sorry.

  I don't think it's our business to correct misprints.  Let blind people 
  see how crappy the proofreading is nowadays.  Although, of course, many 
  will think it's us, and not the publishing industry.  Cheap bastards, who 
  don't bother to pay for proofreading anymore, and, I sometimes think, 
  editing, either.
