[QUOTE="BMWMC, post: 5042398, member: 37461"] I'm not interested in precision writing on a messageboard. If you get the inferences then that's all that matters. Those that want to cleave spaces between the words and line for some "gotcha" grammar moment show themselves as more interested in mechanics than thought. It's not that I totally disagree with you but the context is everything and it's were your argument is the weakest. The need for mechanical adherences isn't required in the 6th grade or in masters class at Yale or Harvard. Absolutely, in their final papers but not in the formulation of a discussion and the within a debate of ideas. You want to forgo addressing the topic by hiding behind grammatical rules. That's not even allowed in Ivy league schools and would be called out in the most embarrassing way by the professor conducting the lessons. Make all your corrections to my sentence structure and spelling as you like but stay on point. As bad as I might be adding quick responses to comments in sentences structure or grammar I still think I am reasonably understandable and most willing to enhance my point if the needed by the reader. Stop flagging me about missing a "s" at the end spend more energy proving your point. [/QUOTE]
