Really, that seemed unnecessary :)

I can't speak for Andrej, but personally I think corrections for 
published articles are helpful, and TWiD has a wider audience 
than this forum (or at least so I hope). Typos in a post with 
typo corrections don't change the validity of the corrections, 
and I did not find anonymous' post mean in any way.

Plus, I think that at least the second mistake was on purpose and 
meant as a joke:
