what on earth are you talking about ? every one of my sentences has a verb & all the words are spelled in full. i have used 2 standard abbreviations, 'c' = 'approximately' & 'eg' = 'for example'. really, this is a disgusting response to my attempt to provide intelligent feedback to a developer's request. who are you ? what qualifications do you have to criticise English ? are you even a native speaker ? your name suggests otherwise. -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Centre for Urban & Community Studies TRANSIT `-O----------O---' University of Toronto -- [email protected] mailing list
