My concern with the tolerance approach is that I have found these same errors occurring with greater frequency in my own writing. It appears that what I read affects what I write, and I read a lot of "loose" vs "lose", "it's" vs "its", "there" vs "their" vs "they're" errors on the 'net. So when I find someone contributing valuable insight marred by such errors, I try to politely and gently suggest greater care in avoiding said errors.

However, I did not intend to start a week-long digression on the topic of typos. ;)

Never mind the typos! For a non-native English speaker, your use of "this" and "that" is intolerably inconsequent. It's torture. Why can't you say "thit" and "that" like normal people, or "this" and "thas" if you absolutely have to?!

Language is a drag. :-)
