It says that spell check won't catch some obvious typos. Not at all obvious. It's a very common error -- not as a typographical error, but as a grammatical error. In this case it was a typo. I don't spell words in my head as I speak, either. Go suck another lemon, and see how you feel. CWM I expect better from you Charlie. You and Dave are two of the few who bring order, decorum, wit and intelligence to this group. Arguing the fine points of grammar is a delight to those of civilization, culture and taste, a group in which you belong but frequently stray. A person of your fine breeding and upbringing should place their egocentric tendencies aside, extend a pinky properly and sincerely thank Dave for his correction, unless, of course, it is you experiencing the citrusy taste. Didn't you learn anything from charm school? May the Lord have mercy! Glory! Bob Crantz May I be forgiven for correcting your grammar? 1) It's "his egocentric", not "their egocentric, (person is singular). 2) It's "your experiencing,", not "you experiencing." (possessive) |
