OT, 3rd grade grammar & spelling for adults

[Thomas Cole]

Dave,

I shared your post with my retired 4th grade teacher/wife and she said 
that she did, indeed, work with her students on those very words 
(probably not "wippen" or "lauan", though).

But I guess nobody's perfect. She chastised you for not capitalizing 
"God"! :-)

Thanks for the reminder. Most of us could tune up our prose. I'm with 
Sarah, though, regarding teaching by example, as correcting others can 
be an encouragement to the oppositional among us.

limited education and never correct him...  you must be the family dog."
