    That's price, not prise..

    Early bird readers catch the not-yet-fully-edited worm. For some reason, I need to read what I've written in actually posted form before being able to correct most typos and the like; reading it in draft form just doesn't work (I think the pressure of knowing it's published is necessary in order sufficiently to focus to catch all small mistakes like that). So anyone who reads what I've written in the first five minutes after posting generally encounters lots of small typos and the like that are in the process of being expunged from the world.
