The Wonder of the Human Mind!
This hotline has been at service for almost two months already, and so far, everybody has been enjoying the forum in its simple, candid, and wholesome form.

But this is the wonder of the human mind! Nobody pointed out that a word has been mispelled in the hotline conversation:

Operator: But don't worry, Ma'am/Sir, you can just post your extended voice message in K'neto's Hotline Forum.

Ma'am/Sir: *mumbling*

Operation: Okay. Have a nice day and thank you


Even I, was surprised with my error. I always thought nothing was suspiciously sticking out here. *Laugh*

The fact is, the brain tends to "assume" successive similar words as the same duplicated form. So, for example, if we always see "Chapter" succesively as it is in a novel, we won't mind if the spelling of the last part is "Chapten 10" or "Chaptre 10," or something else unnoticeable.

For the benefit of the public, I won't replace the misspelled word.
