Exactly. I, too, misinterpreted the headline as you did. Freepers are a sharp and articulate bunch. We need to slow down when posting and re-read our posts a few times before posting. I am an admitted grammar nazi. In our zeal to post, sometimes we (including yours truly) get sloppy. In addition to the fine principles we support on this site everyday, our comments should be expressed with perfect grammar, spelling, punctuation, and syntax.

Technology gets involved also.

Earlier today I made a post and wanted the word "which". My auto correct or whatever it is decided that I really wanted "witch".

Not a super big deal, the spell check found nothing wrong with the word and I should have caught it.

I really don't need that kind of help and I wish that I could shut these "helpful" tools off.
