Heh heh heh, allow me a light-hearted whining...
Being on this mailing list has made me a much slower reader of (english
language) publications. I find I have to pause at every 'your' and
'you're' (and others as well) to see if they mean exactly what is written.
(Huffington post, CNN, Cablegates <by diplomats> made similar mistakes too)
Being a non-native english speaker, I wonder if this affects the natives
too. :)
And to keep this message non-OT, here's good reading (or reread) on
guidance of mailing-list conduct.
