Some time ago, grammar was something that all kids that graduated from a decent high school could manage.

Now?  Not so much.....as Path said, grammar checkers are pretty difficult to manage and I've never heard of one that could be used reliably in a format such as we use here.

Simple corrections like using an "a" instead of an "an" can be problematic.

Nothing is better than good education and a decent typing course these days.  Who'd have thunk one semester of typing (taken simply to meet girls), would have come in so handy in my daily life.

If you have a long, drawn out paragraph and want to check it, copy and paste it into MS Word 2007 and it will do a decent job with the grammar check.


And ya hafta wipe the brains AFTER you reach for the strikin' paper.........  ;D  ;)  ;D  ;D  ;D
