I had decided not to correct your spelling in an earlier post when you
spelled amatuer as amature, and quiet as quite, all while patting yourself
on the back. I have to assume that even using your spell checker, you don't
have "a lot" of time to verify spelling, and that is understandable. I know
some geniuses that can't spell, so that is also understandable. It does
somewhat take away from your self flatulation when you misspell words
though. The whole point I think should be that, you helped that person fix
their PC. Thats all I will say on the subject. (thank god---huh?)
