    Um, is there an error...

    Discussion in 'Word Mechanics' started by DustFeathers, Dec 6, 2006.

    in the name of this forum, or at least the sub-heading? Grammar has two a's, not one a and one e. That's just in the books I learn from. :)

    Yes. Someone should PM Lpspider, and he'll fix it.

    me too!

    note to admin:
    in a site devoted to writing, it's really important for someone in authority [who's a good writer/editor] to do a bit of proofing and catch such stuff, if the one doing the copywriting can't spell better than that... or, to have someone who can spell well write the copy... otherwise, who's gonna take this site seriously?

    Perhaps it was all for the sake of irony.

    what i'd like to know is why the two goofs mentioned haven't been fixed yet...

    as has been noted, it's not a good image to present for a writer's site, right?:redface:

    Hee hee. Thanks for all the replies - my nitpicking about grammar might be fine on the Internet, but you can imagine it annoys the hell out of my friends. Looks like it's been fixed now anyway. Power to the people, eh?
