And if we were sitting in a room talking, we could quickly have checked what
you said for correct meaning. :)
Sadly, when all we have to go on are the typed words here, each and every one
becomes important. Type what you mean ... and don't be surprised if you
regularly fail (... when I reread the above, I had typos in 6 of the words
before the "(" for example :) ). Meaning takes a little longer when most of
the communication cues are missing. :)
The alternative to checking for meaning, is usually ASS U ME ing. That way
lies madness. :) :)
