Lol, and to be picky it should be "larvae" anyway...
Seems many folk don't take spelling and grammar as seriously as they=20
used to. Amazes me how many mistakes (not just typo's) are made in=20
"respectable" publications.
I passed by a local shop the other day, they had a big new main sign=20
which looked very nice BUT had a spelling mistake (can't remember what=20
it was now) - surely in the age of spell checkers, online dictionaries=20
etc  this should happen less, even if our literacy levels are=20
diminishing. A bit like calculators vs mental arithmetic maybe.
