I never realised other people don't run back and forth through a book. So it
didn't occur to me that that was the issue. Me, I can read lots of different
stuff in the same time frame and in total disorder. I puzzle it back together
in my mind after I've read it. I also don't mind if I get to see the last part
of a movie first and the whole movie later. Or if sequells get mixed up. But I
guess that must have something to do with the amazing amount of storylines I
seem to be able to store in my mind. :o).
And you guys are really unbelievable. Discussing anything anytime... :o) Glad
you took the bait. ;o)

Thanks. You just saved me from total emberassement. We are about to publish an
article and there are a lot of "it's" in it in stead of "its". We do have to
correct that.
