It is like watching part 2 of a "to be contiued" episode of a TV program. By the way, what irritated me to most of the second Matrix movie was not the movie but the at the end they throw up (all punt intended) the "To Be Continued" statement. I did not pay good money to see a half a movie.

My temporary spare time, which I keep being assured is only temporary, gives me an opportunity to exercise more, play around with .NET a bit more, and work on a novel which is crap so far.

>>>>As far as "warrie", I still think you posted a different word and then went back and changed it. IAC I still have only the vaguest idea what a warrie might be. If a Trekkie is a Star Trek fanatic, is a warrie a war fanatic? And what did I say to make you think I am one?

>>>It was Greg who asked if you were a Trekkie. I merely mused that if a Trekkie is someone who loves Start Trek then, by the same token, your being a Star Wars fan would make you a "Warrie" (Star being the common word to both), not that you necessarily are one. What is the other meaning of "Warrie"? and, no, I didn't go back and change it - what makes you think that?

You've no idea how many times a day I have to bite my tongue when I see some of the attrocious grammatical and spelling errors here, esp. the common use of "loose" when "lose" is meant, or the use of "of" for "have" as in "I could of done it", or the lack of a past participle in a verb where it requires one ... yet you pull me up on one lousy dropped letter.

No, I don't. It's just chat. In any of my business or otherwise official correspondences I am quite careful. Online, no.

As far as full stops / periods, two is the correct number of spaces, at least over here. I just reviewed a few of your posts to see if it might be different in England but there were too many run-on sentences for me to tell (LOL).

Have a GREAT day!
