MrB I invented modding! Registered: 08/28/03 Posts: 7389 Loc: SE Kansas	Same here. I cringe when I see "your" and "you're" mixed up. What really digs me are the times I write "your" when I shouldn't have. I also cringe withe the mixup of "to"and "too". Dave _________________________ There are 10 kinds of people.

I think I've posted a/b this before, but the one thing that drives me kuhrazee in this area are phrases like: "It needs fixed"; "It needs painted"; "They need washed". WTF can't anyone say, "It needs to be fixed"; or "They need washing". Uhg! _________________________
