I never confuse "you're" with "your" or "it's" with "its". It happened because I
changed my mind about the sentence in question and typed too fast, which is an
internet hazard I believe. But if you're convinced that your estimation of my
apparent mistake is correct, don't change it on my behalf. Good excuses are, as
they say, easy to come by.

Best wishes...
