    That isn't a grammar error. That is a spelling error.

    I looked at the word, but was too lazy to check and see how many "s's" are in trespassing. Clearly, they were using both written, and illustrated instructions on their sign.

    That is a U of A sign, ASU it is not!

    Also, spelling is something our Aggies didn't stress too much...the cows didn't ever care.

    Ahh, now I get it. Thought that part was misspelled also. Thanx for pointing that out......

    they say if the first and last letters of a word are correct and most words in the middle are correct, in some sort of correct sequence that people will read the words without problem and most will not notice the misspellings.
