  It's not like *I* would always write perfect English, but at least I'm
willing to learn from my mistakes.

  For instance, for a long time I wrote "piratism" until someone pointe out
to me that it's actually "piracy" (the former could be classified as
Finglish). Likewise for a very long time I wrote sentences in the form
"I wonder what does this do", when the better way of writing it is
"I wonder what this does".

  One of the latest mistakes I have noticed is that I have been writing
for years "truely" when the proper word is "truly". Another is that I have
been writing "substraction" instead of "subtraction" (the former I have
"mislearned" from Spanish).

  Oh, and the latest one has been using "cursive" instead of "italic"
(again, Finglish).
