For instance, I'm sure you didn't mean to write 1964 -- I'm not even clear that you meant 1864. I am sure you didn't mean to write 'Texsas' -- not on this board, anyway!

I make plenty of mistakes myself and often preview a message half a dozen times or more before posting. I previewed this post twice before posting!
