Great story! I noticed the source right off but I still love it when the oh-so-smug lazy readers (me included) get caught out in a reading comprehension fail. Maybe if they or I paid a bit more attention to details like the difference between "to" and "too", for instance, the embarrassment would be less frequent. :thumbup:
