Greetings Group, Your filling up my Mail "Rules" with yet another subject that has been added "Correct English Flame" GO STRAIGHT TO THE BLACK HOLE do not pass goal. Yes I know all caps is like yelling so I don't need to be lectured on caps, as the purpose was "Yelling." Yeah I know you can change the "Subject:" and the email will show up in my mail box, however what that means to me is that you got my spike to heart and you want to make sure that I know that you are hurt by pointing out a mistake that I've made. Let those that have never made any mistakes cast the first stone. After all if you want to discuss "English" or "Grammar" or almost anything else you will find a Yahoo Group that is interested in pursuing that subject to the infinite degree. So please make yourself happy and join one of those groups. I've had my say and from now on I'll just add "Subjects" that I don't like to the "Black Hole List" and not say another word.
