Misspellings - Friend or Foe?

One of my biggest pet peeves is misspellings. While there are some legitimate reasons to have misspellings on your website, most of the time it is extremely unprofessional.

So what is driving my latest rant? Coors Brewing Company sent me this email:
Thank you for entering the Coors Light® Silver Ticket 2008 Sweepstakes. Unfortunately you're entry is not a winner this time. You can try again by entering another Official Entry Code at Coorslight.com, limit of two entries per person, wireless-telephone number, or e-mail address per day.

Seriously? you're or you are? So it would read:
Thank you for entering the Coors Light® Silver Ticket 2008 Sweepstakes. Unfortunately you are entry is not a winner this time. You can try again by entering another Official Entry Code at Coorslight.com, limit of two entries per person, wireless-telephone number, or e-mail address per day.

CBC - Please fix this!
