Just the fact that the writer starts the article by spelling Colombia wrong and writing about drugs and paramilitaries ruins it for me!

SIMON:

Well most articles are written that way these days. Remember what crowd you are catering to, ones that know little if anything like those around here.

Well, remember that Columbia is the way the word is spelled in english. Easy mistake for a person to make, not really the end of the world, or an insult to colombia or latin american culture.Just consider it a typo and move on. Happens all the time, and will continue to happen for the next thousand years or so.

Ya it's not the end of the world but really freakin' unprofessional in a published piece. I caught the same mistake in government docs a couple months ago, it was a tourism thing, possibly something to do with pan am games.
