Maybe I Am And Maybe I’m Not

An interesting typo in USA Today recently. They ran an article on a new program being considered by Homeland Security designed to allow frequent travelers to provide information and be pre-screened and than by pass security check.

Unfortunately for Homeland Security, the article presented the program as ‘Probably Registered Travelers’. This would certainly make things interesting at the airport:

TSA employee to traveler, “Are you a registered traveler?”

Traveler, “Um. Probably.”

TSA employee, “Okay. Then you can go through.”
