Thanks for taking the (constructive) criticism with equanimity.

It may be only an on-line forum, but I view it (and other forms of communication) as an opportunity to practice good usage. After all, what is wrong with sounding well educated?

By the way, being well educated is a pleasurable and life-long adventure – not something we suddenly become upon receiving the bachelor’s degree. If we have an eye toward improvement we won’t mind the mistakes we make – and we will make them, guaranteed --we’d be less than human if we didn’t!

I’ll let you know when I’ve reached the “well educated” state – but don’t hold your breath – I’m, not! Getting there is MORE than half the fun.

Is “gah” a word?!
