You left the orginal "F" and replaced the following 4 letters with 5. Obviously you are not even aware of what you are doing. The first thing I learned about coding is that if you can't keep your comments nicely aligned, you won't keep your code nicely aligned, and code that is not nicely aligned is bad code because it is difficult to audit. These very basic truisms are, in fact, the reason that I invented the TAB character ... to make things nicely aligned. But I digress.
