Scott: "--Has anyone else had this happen to them? I'm ashamed that
someone thought I wrote this flame."
Scott,
I've had my share of flames, but nothing like this. Sounds like
someone is extremely jealous of your 200+ reviews (one more,
now :) ). I feel really sorry for the kid who got in the way of that
can't-see-anyone-doing-better-than-me malevolent identity-snatcher.
Scott: "It continues to amaze me that some people can have such bad
grammar."
Sam: "I get frustrated at people who can't understand the difference
between you're and your, and when to use each appropriately (sp?).
And the their/there/they're difference. And the whole apostrophe for
ownership/plural deal. I seem to be seeing "CD's Sale" wherever I go.
I didn't know that a compact disc could *have* a sale!"
I was almost offended by that. Not all of us are native to English,
and good beta readers are hard to come by (Yes, Scott, I've seen your
list, very impressive <BG>). I was only able to assemble a serious
beta team in the middle of my second story. Although Jim Flanagan has
worked with me on some of the previously released chapters, I
wouldn't want any grammar-sensitive person to read them.
Thanks, yael
