The keywords tag has a misspelling, and has been left alone for several years. The site has never been picked up on the misspelling. Interestingly, another site had copied their metatags into its page text, so that one does show. I don't think Google is looking at the keywords tag.

It is a valid application towards misspellings, synonyms, and variations of industry jargon. Displaying misspellings to the users is bad user experience, and the only remaining place to do that is meta keywords. Meta keywords are useless only if you are spamming.
