OK. It seems a quick lesson in grammar is necessary at this point,
so you do not keep appearing as an illiterate idiot.


By the way, "John", I was happy that I provide the quick lesson in
grammar which you requested.

Dave K8MN


you have no shame, moron ...


The moron is the guy who stands on the rooftop, expresses his ignorance
and insists that he is correct, while calling others "moron."

Sorry John.

Dave is right. You are incorrect.

Contractions are formed as 's: He Is = he's.

Posessives are likewise formed as 's: Heil's contacts all used CW.

Plural possessives are formed as s': Heil's contacts' radios were set to CW
mode.

Don't sweat it.

Amateurs (plural, and NO apostrophe) frequently attempt to argue the
incorrect to be correct, and so look imbecilic.

Part of the new amateur policy should be to attempt to correct this
image. The image of the unwashed, illiterate ham needs to go ... I tire
of the smirks-behind-the-back given by professionals.

In this instance, one anonymous fellow--maybe a radio amateur and maybe
not--has attempted to do what you describe. I wouldn't call him an
imbecile, just unschooled.

I don't know that there is such an image. You could do your part to
better things though. You might use the internet to undergo a crash
course in the use of the apostrophe.

I have no knowledge one way or the other regarding said smirks.

However, I do believe it is malfeasant on the part of anyone to not --
tactfully -- correct something they know to be incorrect.

At what point in today's society did it become politically correct to allow
ignorance to flourish?

That's another interesting take you have, "John". A couple of
characters want me to disclose information on my military service. I
haven't provided it, yet the quizzing doesn't stop. Where is the
bickering coming from? You have no information on whether I'm a slob of
any kind, but you're quick to make such a claim.

You haven't disclosed much about yourself, "John". Feel free to send
Len and hot-ham-and-whatever your military service information if you

like.

Dave K8MN


You fill this ng with more chit than mark battling his insane
persecutors. If your example here is applied towards defining amateur
policy, you would have us all becoming a bunch of old bickering women.

Of course, some already are ...

JS


Yes, you are.

It is can be stated at it's, let us can be stated as let's, he is can be
stated as he's ...

Possession is shown as that guys' car, that girls' clothes, sues' home ...

And, heils' manner is barbaric, idiotic and moronic!

Get it right moron, take an english class!

JS


Er...would that be an English class?
Get it right, moron.

So far, so good.

Possession is shown as that guys' car, that girls' clothes, sues' home

....

*snicker*

"guy's car", "girl's clothes", "Sue's home"

You have very little idea of how to use an apostrophe, much less a
capital letter.

And, heils' manner is barbaric, idiotic and moronic!


"Heil's" manner is none of the above.

Get it right moron, take an english class!


It is because I've taken English classes that I'm able to see your errors.

Dave K8MN

Poor "John". He came out with both cap guns blazing only to stumble over his
own, two left feet.

Hey, Dave. What word did you think Mark might have scrambled???


During the time I read his posts, he's managed to screw up almost all of
them at one time or another.

Dave K8MN


Dave, when I posted "reap," what word did YOU have in mind that Mark
might scramble???

Wait, Dave. Allow me.

Here, hamandcheese, are just a few of Mark's butchered words....enjoy.
