For instance, when I left a message, "The Matrix is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth," the transcribed e-mail I received a minute later read, "The Matrix is the world that has been pulled over. Your is to blind you from the truth." I can live with that. I mean, what do you expect for free...
