**Fred, if the ONLY thing you can reply to, is a typo ( it should have been MURDER ) , and then try to imply / infer some malady , that I don't suffer from, then it is YOU , and YOU alone, who have the problem. Your " SANDBOX " behavoir, has just proved the axium, of this thread.**

Well, if typos and bad spelling are a malady, you are an epidemic. You might be able to convince more people of the wisdom of your thought if you only took a few seconds to proofread before you hit "Post Reply". Jim even offers the opportunity to read the post one more time before exposing it to everyone.

I agree with 90% of what you try to say but 90% of the time, I'm also cringing at the terrible spelling.

And BTW, the word is "axiom".

Wouldn't it be more properly put "axiomatic"?

I don't think there's supposed to be a comma after the word "time". ;^)

Look, I am a lowly " webbie ". This the THIRD keyboard, that I am on, and they ALL loose the letters, pretty fast. It hardly pays, for me to buy yet another one, when I know, that the letters on that one, will disappear as rapidly as the others have. The following letters, are completely gone , from my board : w e r t y i o p a s d g h c b m . To add insult to injury, I am a TERRIBLE typist, and have a form of dyslexia. I AM NOT A VICTIM. I am just somewhat incompitent as a typist . Yes, I SO miss far more typos, than I catch and fix. I do usually proof read, before I post. WebTV, is different from a computer, in that it will often do things, that one as NOT actually asked it to do. When the batteries begin to run down / have run down , letters WILL be doubled, trebled, and even omitted / skipped, no matter what one has really typed. It will also post , BEFORE one has pushed the post button , and much more.

I am NOT, in any way excusing my posts. If ,as you claim, you agree with me 90 % of the time, on 90 % of m posts, then jst try to ignore the mess I usually make, trying to get the message out. I make MORE sense, than most people, who post PERFECTLY typed replies. : - )
