They spelled investigating with a lower-case 'l' :\ Does that bug anyone other than me?

When your hands are shaking from adrenaline because your pre-IPO company is suffering from a global outage, you might hit an l instead of an i.
No worse feeling than typing out a status update without any idea of what's going on.
Just a simple typo. The keys are pretty close together if your finger slips, and I imagine they have enough problems distracting them from proper spellchecking at the moment. :-)
It doesn't bug me. But I really want to understand how that happens.
