    Who do you think would be on the list of top ten French Canadian apologists, ever?

    Honesty I am a copy editer by trade and I have never noticed any grammar or spelling issues with you're work.

    Keep on pluggin away.

    Suggest you by the book "Elements of Style" I keep a copy on my desk.

    Boom is a copy editor, but he hires his work out to copy editing sweat shops in India for 10 cents a day.

    I have one on my desk. I use it as a coaster for my Mountain Dew - because whatever is grammatically correct "sounds funny" to my boss. So I just write what he likes to hear and he ends up sounding like a ratard.

    Are you apologizing for being French or for being Canadian? Hard to pick which one you should be most apologetic about.

    Seriously, though, I've never seen a thing wrong with your English or grammar. I've poked fun at you just over you starting all the "greatest ever" type threads. It's hard to detect sarcasm in print. Hey, your threads get responses and people join in the debates, so you've earned your way. Keep it up. Sorry if I pissed you off. You can make fun of me in French if you like. I might be able to figure it out.
