Misinterpretations of the Koran

I just sent the following e-mail with the above title as the subject:
Dear Administrator,
I was lucky enough to locate your online Koran with searches, however when I looked up verse 11 of the Immunity, I was surprised not to find the proper text. I expected to find:

Koran (9:11) - For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle. The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah and lo, while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced; for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah; and there was peace.

Could you please edit the existing online text with this correction?

Thank you,
[My Name]


I'll keep you posted on what happens, if anything.

UPDATE:

The e-mail link is dead, but the Koran server lives on, a cybernetic zombie of the internet.
