Thank you Kevin for clarifying that. I had thought it was being taken by you as a joke. I'm glad I was right. I think that, for me, it was my way of reacting to the monotonous criticism by some on the list towards those whose grasp of English/spelling, and punctuation, may not be as polished as others. If anyone took offense to what Allan and I were doing, it was not meant to hurt anyone.
