Dad, I had to change my name after I learned that you killfiled my old
>name! Now you can read my earlier message.
Kill filed is not one word.

have and have had a C6 for over a year. It don't sit in the garage as it has 14,000
Wow! Dad, you really shouldn't be talking about writing skills. Men in
>glass houses shouldn't throw stones. ;-) . Your response is rife with
>poor grammar. "It don't sit in the garage..." should read "It doesn't
>sit in the garage...".
Multiple uses of unnecessary periods.
> miles on it. About the same miles I put on the '04 Commemorative
Edition I had after I had a '98 with 40,000+ on it, that preceded the '92 that had close to 100,000 miles.
You should seldom, if ever, start a sentence with a preposition. The
>above sentence is very poorly structured and should actually have been 2
>or 3 separate sentences. I would suggest that it would have been better
>grammar, if set out like this:
>"I put approximately the same mileage on the '04 Commemorative Edition
>which I owned previously. I owned a '98 with 40,000 miles on it, prior
>to that. I also owned a '92 with close to 100,000 miles on it, before >that."

I could care less what you think.

was only one generation.
"There was..." should actually read "There were...".
More uses of unnecessary periods.

>This should have been 2 separate sentences.
The above sentence is an improper sentence structure and you did it with only 6 words. You are a remarkable writer.

Leave my kettle out of this. If she was black that is no concern of yours.
I never said he wasn't welcome here. My thoughts were that his offer wasn't anything but a fishing expedition.
NewsGroup cannot have a capital letter ?G? as used by you.
The spelling of unsavory can be a personal thing but not common in the USA.
You have a life time job if you attempt to clean up the spelling and grammar on news groups.
Now back to the kill file for the old grayfox, eh.
