Whatever. Everybody has pet peeves. We can't help it if some grammar mistakes bother us. I think this thread has gone off on a tanget and people are starting to get defensive.

Starting? Some folks are way past "starting"!!

Oh wait, can that statement be construde as "flaming"? Don't want to hurt anyone else's feelings here. I didn't realize we were such a nation of "sensitive souls" where no one can have an opinion for fear of "hurting" someone else's feeelings.

I have some participation trophies in case we need those along with the kleenex....

What is your problem? It appears you are looking for trouble when their shouldn't be any.
Everyone else is having a conversation and you are throwing out insults, in case you haven't noticed you are the only one behaving this way and its uncalled for.

Well wait till you hear my thick accent, and then you will say OH he better makes mistakes while he is typing than hearing his voice

anyway I think I do real good for non english speaker, and BTW I can speake, read, and write German and Arabic.

Please don't get mad when you see all the mistakes I do in english.

This is exactly why I don't like threads like this. It dissuades participation from great members.

My In-Laws pick on servers from other countries. I have to point out to them that these folks are speaking another language in a foreign country. Taking our food orders and participating in a conversation. I can type pretty well. However, I cannot speak (or type) in any other language than my own. I also do not have any learning disabilities that keeps me from putting my words down on the screen. People that are great at some things are lousy at others. Hey, I'm bad at math too.

Time to pull down the shades on this one, folks. Thanks for those who participated tactfully.
