It depends on whether they'd be able to fix it if they wanted to. And maybe also what the spelling error and display are.So if there's a spelling error in a display that is probably coming down soon anyway, do you point it out to the person who put it up, or just leave it? (If it was me and it was going to be up a long time I'd want to fix it, but if it's near the end of its life I think I would rather go on obliviously).

Ah, I feel like I'd let that go. They may know and have already done the math on fixing it.A card in a library display case that probably won't get much traffic or many people that notice the error before it comes down this summer at some point (it's an authors name and the display case is off to the side).

Also, I'm sorry that people were mean to you -- checking the math -- 40 years ago. They don't deserve to continue living in your head rent-free, though.
