We all have worn that sign at one time or another, you know those collections
of little orange cones in the corner we all have.  Well, to reduce the rate
of growth of those it is usually best to drop the attitude ``I am above
error in this simple case'' and have _all_ patches reviewed, no matter how
trivial.  I know it sure reduced my pile of little orange hats over the
year, though I still get one once in a while :-).

Just ask any senior committer (thats someone who has been around more than
1/2 the life of the project) how many times they could have saved themselves
and everyone else some grief had they sent that 10 line patch off for review
before commititing it.
