Cause and affect

Courtesy of a fellow called Paragon in the original thread I started at The Shizz.org for these dumberer posts:


An example of how many people don't know the difference between effect and affect, including authors, editors, proofreaders, and however many other people see it before the book gets printed. :p A little more forgiveable than many errors, but it's still the kind of thing that someone [other than me] should've noticed.
