"Red". I could swear that I never touched the "a" button....!

Btw., I think I'm in good company. I often see people writing the wrong word, which sounds the same. One word that comes to mind, is "lose" and "loose". I think I see "loose" more often than I see lose, in the meaning of no longer have. Lose is a verb, and loose is an adjective.
