Concerning the posts about correcting the grammar of list member posts.
What is the big deal? We are technical writers and good habits must extend
to list posts as well. I spell check my posts, I think everyone should as
well.
If a potential employer reads this list, don't you want that person to read
a well written reply, properly spell checked and without spelling errors?
