Technical corrections. Any wonk who peruses tax (and other) legislation is familiar with this term.

This is how Capitol Hill cleans up after itself when a bill is poorly written or isn't clear or just plain has mistakes in it. The description of the Tax Technical Corrections Act of 2006, for example, is 13 pages of errata going back, in this case, to problems in the IRS Restructuring and Reform Act of 1998.

Well, I also occasionally mess up (right now, the hubby is printing out this page for future reference). The most recent instance was in Sunday's post on the new IRS rule requiring e-file providers to register their Web sites.

It seems that IE browser users didn't get the full post.

Firefox is my default browser. The hubby is an IE man. Today, when he finally got around to reading yesterday's post -- How dare he not drop everything and read the blog first thing every day!? This will be discussed over dinner. -- he noticed that half a paragraph was missing. The paragraph just under the 1-2-3 list abruptly ended after the words "Uncle Sam."

The problem apparently was truly was technical. It seems there was some strange code glitch. It doesn't really matter why it happened. What does matter is that the entry was incomplete for many readers. It now has been restored to its full version for IE users.

I usually check the blog on both browsers, but obviously I, too, was too busy yesterday screwing around to do so. I apologize for the lapse. And I promise to be a better browser editor in the future.
