. I suspect C2H5OH was meant.

Absolutely!

A curious development I have noticed in the last few months is that I am inverting letters when typing(deliberate). This has nothing to do with the basic error above, but does mean that I have to spend a lot more time proof-reading. The odd thing is that my brain is issuing the command to hit the keys in the correct order, but somewhere along the chain, the order in which the keys get struck is reversed. I would estimate that this happens with around 50-70% of all the owrds(unintentional, left in for illustration) I type. Now, if only the "2" and the "5" were next to each other, I would be able to claim "typo!"
