Dave, it's always good to see you here as you have contributed to this Board in many ways. Unfortunately, as with most online Boards regardless of hobby or interest there will always be those who take offense with simple observations, such as you expressed. Again, glad to see you and don't be a stranger around these parts!

OK, I'm one of the dreaded 'noobs' here, but I do have to agree to a point about spelling and grammar. I'm not talking about simple typo's, I'm a lousy typist myself and haven't had any feeling in my fingertips for years.... but some posts are actually painful to try to read and understand. Take a minute, slow down, READ what you wrote and be sure that's what you want the world to see.... that also keeps down flame wars BTW.....

Oh, and other forums have told me I use the "......" WAYYYY too much...... Sorry...... Bad Habit.....

True. But if the spelling and grammar are bad enough I just skip the post and miss out on all those pearls of wisdom....

Besides, all those red lines under the misspelled words should be a clue.... ( I'm using Firefox for my browser)

Hardly the best way to make your point when you yourself failed to spell and form proper sentences.

But anyways, I do agree to a point.
