If all the authors used grammar like you, books would be extremely confusing and hard to read; but those great authors are the same English or Liberal Arts majors you are knocking.

I understand you’re not writing a book or novel. However, unless you’re typing on an early 1990’s windows pocket PC, don’t knock those dumb guys who have college degrees while you can’t type proper grammar on your computer.
Wow, that didnt take long to get personal and you took it completely out of context. I said "in my experience" which means not yours or anyone elses, only mine. I wasnt bashing people that had degrees in english or liberal arts and if you will un-wad your man panties and re-read what I wrote you would see that. I was simply saying that having a degree dosent make you smarter that someone one that doesnt in every aspect and it most certainly doesnt replace life experience.

It just so happens that I do have a degree and a very useless one to boot, its an aviation degree actually from an over priced over sold and over valued well known school. For as concerned as you are about my grammar well.....This was all typed on an Iphone (notice I capitalized that out of respect for your editing skills) I really dont care what it looks like on a message board and if you are so concerned about it you obviously have to much time on your hands, but from here on out I will PM you all my posts for proof reading prior to actually posting on here

To the rest of you who I might have offended that was not my intention and I am sorry if I did.
