I sent an email to the editor of the CNN website regarding the typo this morning. Lo and behold! A few hours later, the text has been corrected.
Another plumber is dropping by this afternoon at 16:00 to give us a pricing on the water and gas pipe job that needs to be done in the house. On Monday we have yet another one, this one at the early hour of 6:30AM. That's a great time; I'll only be about 30 mins later in work than usual.
