<< I encourage you to follow your own advice. My Churchill posting was
very pleasant, and I meant it. It's a shame that assholes like you
can't leave me to make my pleasant posting in peace. >>

Hmmm....you've made me rethink my comment and go look up exactly what you said.

===========
Thank you for your constructive comment, Carol; you're always there to help
keep the group on topic. But if you're referring to use of the word "they" in
that sentence, it is considered correct by many people, such as Shakespeare,
and the New York Times style guide. I have no idea what the exact Churchill
quote is.
�
Once again, thank you for helping add to the newsgroup. Where would we be
without the grammar police?

> I'm sorry to be picky, but it didn't sound like Churchill to me.

Whatever. I didn't say it was exact.
�
> If you can find the original you may be able to prove me wrong...

Why would I be interested in proving you wrong? My goal was to convey the sense
of the quote, not to pick nits. And you yourself were
recently mentioning that the group has too much nitpicking and not enough
content. I encourage you to live by those words.

Damn, looking back at these you are correct, they are some of your more
pleasant posts. It's just too bad that your most pleasant post under the best
of circumstances still conveys your unpleasant personality.
