Just becuase some poeple on the network make a few misteaks hear and their, you can't condemm us inferring we are a bunch of ilitterites. I got a good educcation, and even graduated colege with a degrie, why do you pick on triveal speling errers and miner misusageness, why don't you spend you're time with more profittable endevers. I don't mean too be to harsh, but when your always picking on varrius gramatticle points dont you think the rest of us know how to write you think your so high and mitey? When any body critisizes anothers writting, it should be objectionible to both you and I, insulting others on the network. We are all proffesionles as such we should be able to write irregardless of what others insulting us for not writting clearly. Being so snotty, the next thing will probaly be attacks on misplaced modifiers. Or warnnings to never split infinnitives. Being so judgementle, even incomplete sentennces. You might even start looking for run-on sentences we don't do much of that, but you can be issured if we do one you will find it your so concieted, we don't need to have to take this from you. In summery, why do you care if grammaticle errers so long as our stating our thoughts clearly and logically you should know what we mean saying it? ----------------------------------------------------------------- Dave Kirby ( ...!ihnp4!akgub!cylixd!dave) (The views expressed herein are the exclusive property of Dave Kirby.
