Have you noticed most people spell "lose" wrong?

I notice that almost everyone on here spells LOSE (as in LOSE weight) as LOOSE. I can't believe so many people do not understand the difference. Oh well.. no biggie, just wondering if I'm the only person who notices this constant error?

    If that's the only word you've noticed, you haven't been around here long... The gremlins have infected many people here with a spelling retardant.

    Spelling errors are a constant irritant...it's like no one here uses the Check Spelling link before sending...the only other thing that is more irritating is the poor grammar!
