    Competative?
    Campain?
    Guarentee?
    
    Poor Daniel Webster would roll over in his grave.  If you are going to
    criticize something, be sure your own quality control is in good
    working order.  (I'm not defending the DCU).

re .-2 ...

I think that you are being a little crass and unkind with your response ...
There are some people who do have problems with English language, spelling
and grammar ... You don't know that the person you just lambasted has 
English as his first language or not.  Just because a person's English
may not be the best, does not necessarily make his contribution to the
discussion any the less valuable.

814.5did I open JOY_OF_LEX by misteak? (Spelling intentional)CVG::THOMPSONAn AlphaGeneration NoterTue Apr 12 1994 13:037
    I don't see a need for people to correct spelling and grammar by
    making a reply here. As John Paul Jones used to say, "Commend in
    public, correct in private." Correct peoples typos, spelling and
    grammar by mail. Or take it to JOY_OF_LEX. Thanks.
