I realised what had happened (I've done the same myself). It's a case

Yes. As I wrote I was dithering between "for four decades" and "for about
40 years" and ended up writing a mashup of the two. 8-]

I bet you proof read it and *still* managed to miss it, eh? :-)


Sadly, yes. I followed my usual practice of leaving the draft for a day or
two for my brain to clear, then going though it two or three times looking
for mistakes, tweaking the phrasing, etc. Managed to miss it. I also missed
another error that Mike Solomons noticed immediately I'd put up the page
and told him.
