Oscelyn A. AndersonI like your definitions, particularly the first one. I cut plenty of slack for anyone who is doing captions for a live broadcast. Canned shows with committee-scrutinized scripts are another matter though, and commercials are the epitome of this. If a company can't bother to proofread 30 seconds of dialog that's intended to put them in their best light, I have to question the quality of their products. This wasn't something that would fool a spell checker - if they bothered to use one.
