Philip Taylor, who has a sharp tongue, looked just at the MacTeXtras page on the site and discovered a missing word. The first sentence is supposed to read
"The complete MacTeX Distribution is part of the TeX Collection produced by the TeX User Groups,

Philip Taylor, who, compared to some well-known contributors to
TeXhax, tends to be extremely moderate and tolerant in his wording,
followed the link kindly provided by Herbert Voss :<br>

Not having Richard's prescience, he was blissfully unaware that the
word WHICH had been omitted, and therefore read it as :<br>
<br>
<blockquote type="cite">The complete <a

He was therefore completely confused as to why one might need to
download <b>MacTextras.zip</b> if one has already installed the
complete <a
