Anyone one the business end of a taser would know! In fact I think it is the high volts, low amps that make them relatively safe but still effective. > > Spelling correction Curtis: 'manor' is a house, 'manner' is the way something > is done. I think you did this twice recently. Education is forever. Thanks, that is exactly the kind of spelling error I need help with because spell check lets it ride. Once I see it as you have pointed out it seems obvious. Any and all corrections are welcome I have learned to spell better because of spell check but am not a naturally good speller so I am prone to idiocies. > > I think you are fine.
