  1. A signature line on another message board: 'Grammar-the difference between: Let's eat, Grandma! Let's eat Grandma!

  2. What is difference between TRX Alliance and TRX Software Development, Inc? If want to stay with Redgear software, why do we have to still be with TRX Alliance? Can't Redgear software be purchased direct from Redgear? How was a NASCAR team sponsored in 2011 if TRX Alliance owed so many clients Service Bureau Fee money from 2010? How do you not pay independent tax business owners money you owe them but can justify sponsoring a NASCAR team? If anyone can please answer as these are serious questions.

  3. I fixed that for you, so Max will feel better when he sees it next. I too tend to be a bit of a 'grammar police' person myself. The result of a wonderful, but extremely strict, teacher in high school, I expect. Mrs Rogers was a tiny little woman, who could with one look make the biggest football jock swallow his gum without a moments hesitation. And she drilled us on proper use of the English language in ways that made all her students use better grammar all the time. She was a good artist, so used pictures to help us understand. I can still see her drawing of the phrase 'the old man was sweeping the floor with a long white beard". I still move a descriptive phrase when it is misplaced, just because of that one example. So things like that topic heading just grate on me. It's not a big deal, but if you look at an old post and suddenly notice that some typo or split infinitive has been corrected, it's probably because I read it. :P
