Reading throught the Gentoo XML guide, I noticed  a typo in the Epigraph section. Anonymous student says "Benjamin Franklin were two singers of the Declaration". This should in fact be "Benjamin Franklin were two signers of the Declaration". Quite trivial and is just a spelling error.

Reproducible: Always

The example is a humorous epigraph taken from actual student papers -- read the rest; his quotes are deliberately misstated (he never said "a horse divided against itself cannot stand".

Not a bug. ;)

Ok, well I got my first RESO INVAL bug....

Reading through the rest, I do see your point. That student must have gotten an F on his paper.
