>In Catholic grammar school they had different ways to teach us how to remember rules of the American form of the English language. As Sister Mary Saint Stanislaus stated, “A chicken lay’s eggs”! Perhaps the "good Sister" was inferring that we were not chickens? :)
Well if it was a grammar school, and she taught you to put an apostrophe in the 3rd person singular, I hope she went to hell - that, along with apostrophes for plurals, is my worst bug-bear! :-)
Oh and, sorry, She "implied" while you "inferred"
Sorry - I REALLY am an old grammar fart. Forgive me? :-)
