It's hard to suggest that there is a better system than what we have 
presently for dealing with this problem.

The verse parser takes whatever has been identified as the verse and 
tries to figure out which verse is the closest match.  If you give a 
partial book name (or abbreviation), it will probably figure out the 
correct book that you meant.  If you misspell something, as you have 
noticed, it reverts to the default verse (Gen 1:1 for vpl2mod).  This is 
another good argument for using abbreviations since fewer letters equal 
fewer opportunities for misspelling. :)

Maybe we should just add printing of the verse reference itself (before 
it has been parsed) along with the warning that the verse is being 
overwritten.
