[QUOTE="DS, post: 756994, member: 556"] Upstate,it's not like me to correct others bad spelling,but I will make an exception in your case:)...........................putting "IR" in front of REGARDLESS,makes it a double negative.I found this explanation. Used by people who ignorantly mean to say regardless. According to webster, it is a word, but since the prefix "ir" and the suffx "less" both mean "not or with" they cancel each other out, so what you end up with is regard. When you use this to try to say you don't care about something, you end up saying that you do. Of course everyone knows what you mean to say and only a diligent, bored mod will correct you.:) [/QUOTE]
