    You should consider a career as a copy editor, if you feel so passionately about the subject.

    Yet again, you'll probably get fired over looking at fetish foot porn on work computers... so, it might be a lost cause.

    Ah yes, but if you put in a capital "A" it comes out as a small "a". Tricks of the trade :)

    In English English rather than American English, the word 'gotten' is very rarely used. 'Should have got' is perfectly acceptable.

    One that comes up over and again is the who or whom question.

    'The one it went to' or 'the one to whom it went'. Number 2 is the proper form.

    Yes very true! I guess I don't pay a lot of attention to my grammar when writing on forums because it's so casual. However, an essay is another story lol.

    If you're that bad at reading comprehension, then the editor idea is out the window...

    i keep them pretty odor free. When I must wear shoes, I wear breathable material, and I wash off any odor as soon as I take them off.

    yeah, it doesn't automatically capitalize. And I forgot how to make it.
