Proper punctuation and sentence structure is the key to happiness and lack of eye strain.

"Grammer"? You certainly are right but my biggest problem is remembering how to and what is your name, what day is it,etc. Reading your answers I feel like you don't have that problem. I surely would like to know what you know.

Well, we all have our own troubles with writing. Havn't met a person yet who is a perfect speller. I try to be, but I am not. I just don't like it when some people come on here and ask questions, and everything is lower cased. There are no periods or commas or any other separation to the sentence structure. It's just one big line. Anyway, I was just making a joke of it. No biggie.

Correct spelling and a dictionary of buzz words/acronyms would help too. Been associated with radio/TV since early 50's, but never heard of a dogbone resistor.

Wasn't quite referring to the dog bone resistor. Guess that's a slang some people use, which is alright by me. Here in Milwaukee, everyone calls drinking fountains "bubblers", which baffles me, but then, I call them bubblers sometimes, too.

My big thing is when people write a big lot of lowercased words with no periods or commas or capital letters, and I have to deciphor the sentence structure out of this.

Dog bones are cool by me, though.

Perhaps as a prerequisite to joining this forum we should all read "Eats, Shoots & Leaves" by Lynne Truss. Just kidding.

Humm,
I appology if sometimes I commit grammar mistakes (I'm trying to not), but some people we are writting from so far where english is not our native tongue, so I ask mercy for all those foreingers :) (can I use it?). You know, when we are in the "middle of the battle" we felt anxious and we can commit mistakes, but at least we didn't use the altavista translator, that would be chaotic :)

Cheers

EAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!! LET"S DROP THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was just making a light joke about people who connect all sentences together as one string of words with no punctuation or capitolization. This is a popular trend, especially with younger people, here in the U.S.A., not with foreign speaking people, so it isn't even an issue with people from foreign countries. WE ALL MAKE MISTAKES!!!!!!! THAT"S LIFE! LET"S JUST ASK QUESTIONS AND GIVE INFORMATION AND BE HAPPY. DON"T WORRY ABOUT IT.

LET'S DROP THIS SUBJECT AND MOVE ON TO BETTER THINGS! NO MORE REPLIES TO THIS SUBJECT!

THANK YOU!
