It's a pity they didn't bother to run it through a spellchecker first.

Sorry about that! Just did a proofread for obvious errors and I think I got them all. I'm omw out now, but I'll take another look when I get back.

It's open source, you're welcome to contribute a fix: https://github.com/balanced/balanced.github.com/blob/master/...
