It was not that! He used "your" instead of "you're"! I was pointing it out because it was in his "application" to join... the Grammar Squad. I mean, come on, having good grammar is required for something like this, is it not? I was not just being nit-picky...

Errr, yeah. Sorry for sounding so negative towards you; That was really not my intention.
I just think the Grammar Squad should be for people who actually know how to use/make contractions properly. Nothing personal at all. But besides... your grammar seems fine otherwise. So I suppose I'm being nit-picky after all. Sorry again. Not a warm welcome, is it?

Not an issue, you were spot on. No need for apologies or formalities around me, I like folks who get to the point. TC

HEY!!!
How come, when I asked if you needed more grammar people - especially since I'm a full member of SfPE (I started out as a proof-reader and copy-editor) - I was told there were too many, but you are still recruiting?! *Hurrumph* |
