Yes, this error is becoming ubiquitous, and is seen even on this list
(as are the "you're"/"your" and "it's/its"errors). Shocking even for
a non-native English speaker such as myself. And very odd actually,
because I feel that at least part of those who commit it are fully
aware of the distinction between "your" and "you are". You can
encounter this spelling in a long and otherwise perfectly spelt text
providing many more opportunities to to maim the language ;-)
