Also there are certain people on here who post often enough, that after awhile you feel a connection with them and you want to see what new or exciting or funny thing they will be posting about next

Although I will say that being "banned" for spelling and grammar would be bad! I can't spell worth beans half of the time and if it wasn't for spell check bailing me out, I would be in bad shape.
Oops! I seemed to have quoted myself when I originally wanted to edit my last post. Me thinks it's time for bed!

Nope, ... because you can still do "one more." Get on it!

I must say I had the itch this week. You living in Victoria probably don't get this as bad as say over here.. but +11 yesterday .. I almost pulled the bike off the wall to ride into work. However the 4" of snow this morning cured me of the itch. Oh happy days. Oh well, it is supposed to warm up again .. Maybe next week

I have to admit I'm a bit OC about proper spelling and grammar too. Occupational hazard. I usually even edit my emails.

I also love Canreef. It is my sw home site and I try to get on here at least a few times a day.

If it's who I think it is then their objection to the "colourful" spelling is rather ironic since they are Canadian.
I was notified sometime last year that I had been awarded two infractions for not updating my signature in a timely manner. It was rather funny because I hadn't been on that site in months and when I logged in one day I had the infractions. Apparently they had made some rule changes in my absense. Anyway that particular site takes itself a little too seriously(stop signs all over the place, I mean really!) Most of the people are great but the site could be simplified, IMO it's not user friendly. Needless to say I spend way more time here.

The reason that Americans don't use the letter U in their spelling of certain words is because there is a shortage of U's. They have wasted them all saying U-all's.

If I were banned from a site for spelling colour with a U, I would honour that ban with valour and discontinue my neighbourly relations with the site permanantly.

oh about that reactor.. I did find it today while I was looking for the salt I know I have somewhere.... it is 1/2 way to being a CO2 reactor for the fresh water tank now... but... could change my plans I guess.. Oh and I found that long power bar I told you about but still no salt.
