	Yeah, you're right. In this case I didn't read (very obvious) errors 
carefully enough before submitting a reply (because I was somewhat busy and 
annoyed by real-world problems at that moment). Typically I read whole 
message carefully but in this case I didn't and this is the result. I need to 
be more careful...
