Too much weight is placed on spelling in what is a rather senseless unscientific language. Remember too that LA is an APPRENTICE - I mean still learning. I only mix with you intellectuals to try and make sure that what I have to say about you is absolutely correct.<br />I am betting that PSM has his spell checker switched on all the time. I don't. What is more, unless you point out exactly where my mistake(s)is/are/was, I will remain ignorant because I can't find it/them. {Not WIV surely?}.
