Why are some people obsessed with perfection?
I worked for this guy once a few years back who would turn red and scream at
me
if there were more than one or two errors in my draft documents. I tried to
tell him that it was impossible to write a long, complex technical document
without needing some editing. Sheesh, I'm not perfect.

Weren't you the one who saved and posted the errors others had made in their
posts to Techwr-l?
