     People who subscribe to any group on this net are for the most part
well educated people.  You would never know that from some of the articles
which are posted.  The spelling and grammar which I have seen on this net
have been, in spots, atrocious.  Come on, folks.  Your are writing articles
to be read by a public.  We, or our employers are paying good money in phone
bills to subscribe to newsgroups.  Try at the very least proofreading your
articles.  I'm not saying that articles should necessarily be polished and
ready for publication, but spelling and grammar should be corret or some
fascimile thereof.  Most of us have a college education or some portion thereof
and are definitlely capable of this.  Just as an aside, it makes articles
more enjoyable and easier to read.
