And I
would also point out that, when you enclose some words in inverted
commas, they are meant to be an accurate quote of what someone has said.

Not absolutely true! I assuime you are an English grammar "expert" as
well:-0

Yes, I have a very good grasp of the subject. In addition to which I
think I can spell better than you :-)

Just, "Typo" errors actually:-( I think, you need to concentrate on
your own punctuation! Before criticizing others:-0

And where do you think my text could be improved by punctuation? And
before you say, perhaps you could tell me what that comma is doing after
"I think" :-))

I 'd have thought at your age you would know better than to start a
sentence with *AND.* Although it is correct but not normally at the
beginning! It does not make sense:-0 I'll forgive you because you are a
"Scotsman" :-)


Is he a Scotsman? How do you know?


Do you often refer to yourself in the third person, Anguish, or did you
not realise that Granville was referring to a paragraph of yours that
started, "And...."
