You should be penalized because you didn't verify that they had your
call correctly. Typo's into the log will never work out right with the
penalty rule, but the idea is that each contact is an accurate *2 way*
exchange of information. You have 2 responsibilities during the
exchange - that you copy his info correctly, and you make sure he copies
your info correctly.
