True, but the way you did it was a class act. I got the distinct impression that even though you made a mistake, you readily acknowledged it and were ready to laugh about it if anyone else noticed it.

Far too many people are not so ready to admit to errors. You at the very least I found to be with your quick response able to bring a smile on. I too am never leery of learning from any mistake I make, so at your quick repost I was snickering along with you.

Good to get a smile and a laugh going sometimes.

And yes, I well know that others will be very quick to pile on when one does make a mistake, however I have never failed to accept constructive criticism as anything other than a learning experience. *grin*

Cheers!

Thanks for the kind words. What is really bad though, is when one is acting as grammar/spelling nazi, and makes a really silly similar mistake in the reply. (yeah, guilty of same) Sometimes I do it, just to see if anyone is paying attention. :-)

FR is a great place, but you have to be willing to take a little good natured abuse. I saw some newbie get zotted the other day because he went ballistic on someone commenting on an unclear subject of his post. If he'd just responded with a "yeah, that wasn't as clear as it could be, what I meant was ..." Instead he got more and more nasty about it down thread, and people responded in kind. Eventually the mods zotted him for being an ass.

Maybe he'll learn from it, but somehow I doubt it.
