Oooh...a grammarist. g I don't edit my posts, Jim. Neither do I

on people for spelling or grammatical errors here, unless they're
really, really funny. d8-)

That's Gunner's stroke. As he's done several times lately, he's
"corrected" what I've said...by saying exactly the same thing himself.
It's something I don't remember him doing in the past, and it's
worrisome.

Now, are you going to do a Gunner and ask for a "cite"? There's one
right there, if you follow the thread back a couple of posts.

But the bigger question is, what is your point? Are you trying to
argue by pointing out spelling errors? Is that how far you've sunk,
with nothing else to grab onto?

I think so. Your arguments, like those of the gun nutz in general, are
DOA. You're floundering and sputtering over the recent polls. They
have you worried.

They should.
