I said I skimmed. What I saw were added hyphens (probably line breaks that changed), and things like Ferns wheel instead of Ferris wheel or thc for the. Those are likely OCR errors.

As to why they'd be using OCR, or when the material was published, how should I know? Clearly they are using OCR, and they're not proofing the output.
