  1. Hello! I'm new here; love the site!!! So much to learn. BUT, one "minor" gripe: sometimes the spelling makes me cringe! I know, this stuff may not seem important, but it makes one look ignorant, when one is not. For instance: pics are the property of the "perspective owner"? Please get a dictionary, or your 4th grade english book, and learn the difference between "perspective" and "respective." "Course" sandpaper? The writer actually meant "coarse," of course. And it took me a minute or two to realize that one writer was discussing a neck "heel," not a neck "heal." When ya spread mis-spellings like that across the 'net in big, bold letters ... well ... y'know. As a former English major (college level,) I bemoan the downward spiral that is dragging English to extinction. As Professor Higgins said, in "My Fair Lady:" "There even are places where English has completely disappeared; in America, they haven't used it for years." This may be minor stuff but kee-rikeys, ladies an' gents! Let's pretend we're educated!
