Maybe he went to a private school?


I just tried to look at it. Craigslist said the post had expired.

I'm in Richmond VA. Most of the population can't speak proper English
(assuming they're trying). Damn few of them in the city itself
understand boats, which is why I'm entertaining suggestions about where
to move.

I taught ESL for four years. Only the Russians, Ukrainians, and
eastern Europeans learned well. I saw only a few Asians.


It was probably the watermark for bad spelling, use of the wrong spelling
for a word. etc.
