Copy edits 105.2


Bit of a rush on the go, what with our special MUN Reunion insert adding a dozen (full-colour) pages to our editing and proofing (and the printing schedule was abruptly bumped up a week - but that's another story). We're through two rounds of it now, always finding something: an extra space, a misplaced comma, a repeated word. What's most difficult is becoming honestly puzzled at the sight of properly spelled words - after a certain number of reviews, "acquisition", for example, just looks plain odd. (Surely it's not spelled with a "c" ... is it?)
