  No, sorry, John. Again, I'm certainly glad you aren't teaching my 
  children. I'm quite bad at grammer, and language arts as a whole, 
 and I 
  certainly know the difference. It's a little group of words 
called 
  NOUNS..... 
  
  Maybe you could translate the above for me. Does the proper use of 
  commas fall into one of the categories in which you're bad? 
  
 Yes 
  
  In your last sentence above, to what does the 'it's' refer? 
  
 It's is a contraction, meaning it is. So, in it's simplist form, 
just 
 for you, the sentence would be - It IS a little group of words 
called 
 NOUNS. Hope this simplifies it enough for you to understand. 
 
 Fine. So what does the 'it' in "it is" refer to? You said, "It IS a 
 little group of words...." My question is, "WHAT is a little group of 
 words...?" 
 
  Notice: I'm just asking for some clarification. I'm not calling 
you 
  any names. 
  
  Lastly, to which of my posts were you replying? 
 While my new newsgroup reader isn't attaching the posts correctly, 
you 
 certainly should be able to figure that out. If you need some help 
in 
 logically deducing which post I'm replying to, just ask. 
  
 
 I *did* ask. Yes, I need some help in logically deducing to which of 
 my posts you are referring. Maybe that knowledge would help me make 
 sense of your reply.

I seriously doubt it, John. If you can't figure it out yourself, I 
don't think any amount of help would instill logical thinking. Kind of 
like teaching lime Jello to count. 
 
In other words, you can't find it either! You are the king!
