Steve,

A lot of people do quite well in life without having a perfect command
of their native language.

Look at George W. Shrub...? He is one of the most inarticulate people
I have ever seen in high public life. Yet you all voted fro him TWICE!
Why?

The truth is that I didn't ever one time all the way through school
and the university receive an "A" in English"

I usually received "C's" and "D's" in grammar. I took two years of
French and two years of Italian in high school and at the university.
I made "A"'s and "B's" in both of them.

As I said earlier I had a 98% in General Chemistry. I made "A's" in
most of my advance math and science course also. I also made "B's" in
my logic classes.

I'm not sure what it was about English that made it so hard for me to
speak on an excellent level.

I even made "A's" in spelling. I won a spelling bee on television in
grade school.


Just the same there is no need for you to show the world what a low
level of logic you have by trying to belittle the messenger instead of
logically debating his message. :-)

That's a very common thing that people do online and it immediately
reveals that although they may speak grammar well, they do not know
how to reason properly.

In other words they are usually nattering nabobs of negativism!

So mote it be

Should read "most unhealthy."

Now...a question: Did you get straight A grades in English?

Thanks,
