Web Corrections, March 5, 2007 Edition

First off, thank you to everyone who's been checking the Web site for errors. You are helping to make our main site so much better, and I'm sure all our online readers are happy to encounter fewer mistakes when they read Spec.

Special thanks to Tess Rankin, who pointed out a couple errors in an Opinion piece ("Uterus on Strike") that ran today. #1: the author's name is Mary Ann Bonnet (not Maryann). #2: the piece originally contained the phrase "$11,000 dollars," which is horribly redundant. Alas, these may not be correct in the print edition, but at least they've been fixed online. Great work, Tess!

I'm sure these aren't the only mistakes, so please check the site and let me know if you find anything that needs to be changed.

Update: The second graf of the article "IMPLICATIONS: General Studies," by Jesse Dean and Tom Faure, described Mark Rosenthal as a "drama and theatre arts major." Remember, we should write that as "drama and theater arts major."
