	I admit it, I do not capitalize (consistently), I am not very
	careful in correcting my grammar and spelling, and I DON'T CARE
	if it ruins your day, because it shouldn't.

	I think there is a place for investing time and pride in
	writting flawlessly, but it is not HERE.  I don't know
	if I am a member of a minority or the majority - but rare
	is the case when I do not understand or get confused about
	the authors meaning, which is all that I really care about,
	" getting the message". And, I might be atypical,
	but more often than not, you find me here talking to you
	after midnite, tired, but enthusiastically exercising my TTY
	or CRT over a 300 Baud line - and not interested to hide the
	fact that I do not earn my living by typing or publishing.

	So all you perfectionists, I don't mind your flaming about
	ANYTHING on net.flame, but  .....

	I'd rather you'd go to your corner to invent a better mouse-trap.

	I  could be naming names now ........
