I had a notice that Adobe Acrobat 10.1.3 was available and when I tried to
update, I had an error message about permissions. While I was on the website
to investigate, I was prompted to chat with a representative.

I thought the blog post was mildly refreshing, although it could be mistaken
for a parody or another bit of fun, and NOT an official announcement.
I notice that somebody quickly pointed out the occurrences of "would of"
(one of my many pet peeves). Saved me the trouble. :-)
More disturbing was this:

>Hi Mik,
Modify package option specified in AAMEE Deployment Guide is for AAMEE 2.1
workflow and not for AAMEE 3.0 workflow.
> Deployment guide posted on web is combined document and contains separate
chapters for AAMEE 2.1 and AAMEE 3.0. Please refer to AAMEE 3.0 chapters for
feature information of current version.

My beef here is that Adobe let out a combined document when (as Jody pointed
out several times), the two AAMEE versions are different, address different
CS versions, and cannot co-exist.
