[GreenKeys] USA Teletypesetter in Argentina

[Javier]

Thanks guys!!!
I'm glad to know the details!

So this is somewhat an odd creature... As for the price, yes it is 
ridiculous, anyway they have no idea what they are selling so they simply 
try...

The biggest irony is that today, in newspapers there are a LOT MORE errors 
because there is no more proofreading, I guess they just rely in MS Word ;) 
and they simply post the articles without actually checking! At least here 
in Argentina that has been very noticeable in the last 10-15 years...


REGARDS!

Javier LU8AJA
