Lighten up Francis. Many of the browsers available have spell check built in or easy to install add-ons that will do that for you. I merely stated that I enjoyed the typo, it made me chuckle and also made me look to see if it was a legitimate alternate spelling.

In the case of my tag line, that is a glitch in FR’s code that changes an apostrophe to a goofy ascii extended character.

Just to play your game I did try to fix my tag line using the ascii alt entry for an apostrophe and it looks correct on screen and in the preview window, but may get messed up again by FR’s code.

I posted a youtube and went the extra mile (that few other FReepers go) by transcribing the important quote. Over 100 FReepers realized that that information was more important than nonsensical spelling errors and made substantive contributions to the topic. I have no patience for those who get off only on picking at non-material nonsense (without even posting me or the Admin Moderator for a correction). They can go to hell!

"My game" is to use my post to pass on information for other FReepers... and not to nit-pick others for spelling errors, while making a flimsy alibi - that doesnÂ’t doesn't matter - for their own less than perfect post.
