Default Why use brass?

Andrew sez:

" Your implies ownership: "your pen" , "your kipper" etc

You're is an abbreviation for 'you are' as in "You're getting mixed
up."


That's OK, Andrew! Your friendly admonition is greatly acceptable. Thanks!
RCM has become a haven for those that abuse the English language...
Frankly, I tend to pass over messages couched in careless vernacular, such
as the misuse of pronouns. Some RCM respondents have the proclivity to
inject the appearance of "ignorance" in their messages as if this will
elicit more accurate answers from the readership. I think not!

Sincerely yourses,

Bob Swinney
