Thank you for finding and reporting those language errors.
I believe I have found and updated everything that you stated, and found 
a couple myself.
One change that was a little different was the "Vendor" part you 
mentioned.  I replaced "Enterprise Vendor" with "The Upstream Vendor", 
to be more consistent with the rest of the website.

Thanks
Troy
