I thought this might be relevent, or at least a nice brush-up, for a group of people who do a good deal of typing/writing: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://shine.yahoo.com/channel/life/10-common-errors-spell-check-won-t-catch-2039083/#poll-86A687227A3211DF922CE2CA55AE989C">http://shine.yahoo.com/channel/life/10- ... CA55AE989C</a><!-- m --> I know I'm pretty good with the 'their<>they're<>there' and such, but the one that always seems to get me is the its vs. it's. Most of these just burn my eyes to read... I get that improper spelling, grammar, and punctuation don't always necessarily need to be used on the Internet in order to convey one's point, and I have no expectation that everyone should write perfectly all the time. But it can be distracting and may deter from RP if someone is constantly repeating the same types of mistakes. Anyway, I just thought I would share. The more you know. :approve: "One of the deep secrets of life is that all that is really worth doing is what we do for others."  ~ Lewis Carol Eva's Journals  |  Eva's Wiki Page (coming soon)  |  RP Handbook
