Editor wanted at the NY Times

From the New York Times, Oct. 27, 2003:

"Some 7,000 people have registered to attend Microsoft's professional developers conference, which begins today in Los Angeles. The turnout is a record, Microsoft says. The computer professionals will be shown glimpses of Microsoft's next version of Windows, named Longhorn, which will be built using Web services standards. Microsoft has not said when Longhorn will be ready, but it is not expected to be shipped until late 1995 or 1996."

Later in the day they published a correction:
"Some 7,000 people have registered to attend Microsoft's professional developers conference, which begins today in Los Angeles. The turnout is a record, Microsoft says. The computer professionals will be shown glimpses of Microsoft's next version of Windows, named Longhorn, which will be built using Web services standards. Microsoft has not said when Longhorn will be ready, but it is not expected to be shipped until late 2006 or 2006."

Sheesh. Does anyone know why we have editors anymore, if they don't do their jobs?

Maybe they just cut and paste from a previous article?
