Oops, my mistake - I posted this one,OT: Scientists teleport two different objects, not the other. My bad.

Now, relax and take a very deep breath, letting it out slowly....

Your critique is much appreciated. It is true that a quite extensive part of my personality is devoted to the application of appropriate grammer.

Really I should have ascertained that he was referring to another thread seeing as how he was so adamant.

Don't take anything I said personal, I was just kidding around.

I'd made a mistake, and you correctly caught it. No biggie.

Nikola Tesla reportedly managed invisibility of an entire merchant ship, but the field effects on the crew were so severe that the idea was abandoned.

Thanks. I wasn't actually sure about that one. Usually if I am unsure I spellcheck it. Don't know why, but I simply didn't bother.

I tend to be pretty OC about that. It annoys me no end the number of times I see people unable to differentiate between there, their and they're

I saw a post recently where a person was complaining about foreign people asking for there (sic) version of something. I thought "well your concern would be more valid if you knew how to spell"

That's life in the post-literate age

Eh? I rarely see anyone get that wrong? Maybe you just frequent too many FPS type boards filled with kids?
