Typo in write_numbers

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Enter a large number of new tags, with some VR, I haven't confirmed which yet
2. attempt to write the image

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The expected output would be for the image to write correctly, writing all tags

What version of the product are you using?
0.9.8

Please provide any additional information below.

Here's a printout of the error stack, and down at the bottom I think that 
'data_elemesnt' should be 'data_elements' or 'data_element'

  File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/dicom/filewriter.py", line 344, in write_file
    write_dataset(fp, dataset)
  File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/dicom/filewriter.py", line 196, in write_dataset
    write_data_element(fp, dataset[tag], dataset_encoding)
  File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/dicom/filewriter.py", line 167, in write_data_element
    writers[VR][0](fp, data_element, writers[VR][1])
  File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/dicom/filewriter.py", line 48, in write_numbers
    raise IOError("{0}\nfor data_element:\n{1}".format(str(e), str(data_elemesnt)))
NameError: global name 'data_elemesnt' is not defined

Unfortunately that's just a bug in the error reporting that was fixed post 
0.9.8, and hides the original error. Could you change "data_elemesnt" to 
"data_element" at that line 48 in filewriter.py and run it again?

This had already been fixed in the repository code.
