Spelling Error in Missions Tab List: "Assasination" -> "Assassination"

Jun 26, 2005 DekuDekuplex Ornitier link
In the Missions tab list at certain stations (such as Dominus Hold (Serco Research)) [Betheshee M-14], the title for the "Assasination" mission is misspelled. It should be spelled "Assassination."

See Merriam-Webster Online ( at http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?book=Dictionary&va=assassination&x=0&y=0 ) to verify this.

Huh, it's been that way since april 2004. Wonder how I never noticed.

However, Waylon's asinine spelling is assailable. Having assayed his assemblage of assertions, I assent. I have assimilated your assessment. I hope this assuages your concern. Your next assignment is to assiduously cast aspersions on any further spellings gone astray.

To use "assay" in reference to something other than minerals is generallly discouraged. At least, it is according to the College Board/ETS...

Yes, I know that. But I am NOT DISCOURAGED!

It takes a brave man to take on the College Board.
Go a1k0n, go! YEAH!

Beware, youngling. In my foolish youth, I too took on the College Board. They sent back a politely-worded notice smacking down my assertion that their geometry was flawed. I mean, they're the damn College Board. They don't take crap from anybody.
