Grammer?  I distinctly remember learning from that mistake in my time as
a public school student.

I'm sorry ... and I'm sorry because I'm flaming on BayLISA, because that
just aint right, but ... c'mon here ... I work in tech support, so I see
my share of inexplicable stupidity, but on BayLISA?  A spelling flame
that wrongly "corrects" the already-correct spelling of "grammar?"

That is just too ... whatever it is, it is so much of it that you must
receive a public taunting.  Please, if you're going to flame on BayLISA,
you could at least do some cursory research first.  These are SYSADMINS
you are dealing with, and we do not take kindly to egregious
bone-headedness.

And we have dot files ...
