Sad, but true. *sigh*<br />And yeah, orgasms instead of organisms is a pretty common mistake. Kids in my ninth grade biology class didn't make that mistake but only because we read the word 'organism' out loud very slowly and carefully. As in, "Single celled OR-GAN-ISMS..." Needless to say, this also caused immature giggles. :)Bethany Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12829932931010851406noreply@blogger.com
