I thought ed was gentle in his comments - and sincere. BTW, the error in your usage of advice and advise is a grammatical error, not a spelling error.

ed's point is well-made: most newbies could use a little brush up on grammar before they arrive. Just being a native speaker is not enough. Don't be p*ssy about it - just consider it good ADVICE.

Consider also the difference also between your and you're.

Gently yours,

JJJ

A little too many ALSO words there...think? The point is, sometimes we are all typing fast and sometimes we all make spelling errors or Grammer errors...just like YOU did ( except you did it when trying to correct someone else on the same issue, which is kinda funny, if were on the topic of proper posting technique). Let us not get too silly JJJ. Do you really think ED responded on that post out of a genuine concern for my future posting experiences?

Get yourself a Crossword Jenny..........

I think Ed and Jenny really were trying to help. I would have called you on it if they hadn't beaten me to it.

It might not be bad for you coming straight here. But I can't envision myself ever being able to work 40 hours/week again after working like 15 hours now for similar money as to what I'd get back home.
