Sometimes we (I) tend to be too picky. Language is for communication;if the author is able to effectively communicate his/her ideas in an email to the list I can always overlook a few mispelled words.I did not realise that good grammar was a requirement for joining the list. (Just don't tell my students that I'm willing to overlook a few mispelled words - in my classroom it's a whole different ball game, no mispelled words!) --- Tim Collier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
