OT, 3rd grade grammar & spelling for adults

[antares]

Thanks Jim, and I will never write WHIPPEN again.!

Actually, writing in English all these years has helped me 
tremendously!!!! YES!!!!!

My very first bteacher here on ze list was Susan Kline, who patiently, 
e-mail after a-mail, tried to get me on the right track.
It is also amazing to watch the improvements of our colleague Isaac 
Oleg in Paris and other non American techies who, like me, stumble and 
stutter, but nevertheless convey their message.

<(::@)) = OINK!
