Hi Jeff. I thought I should weigh in on this one, as you originally corrected my spelling. I am not offended, on a whole, but having notice your little back and forth with Michael, I decided to look through your comments. You have a tendency to correct other people's grammar and spelling. In most cases this does very little to contribute to the overall nature of discussion. Further, I am sure this is not something you would say to people in a face to face conversation.
Please keep in mind that there are a lot of people on HN who are NOT native English speakers, me being one of them. I am well aware of the fact that on occasion I have a tendency to misspell great as grate, and vice versa. The other 2 languages I speak fluently have much more reasonable spelling rules, but I am not complaining.
However, I am guessing that your superior spelling and grammar skills in your native language are a great source of pride for you, as you like to show them off so much. I would not want to take that away from you. So, you have a nice day.
