Point taken scitizen17 but the others have valid points as well. There are so many examples of that I try and turn my head and not look but sometimes I can't help myself; like when someone spells Peak and they mean Pique.

Isn't that right Laura?

I really don't even know why I posted that. It's really not that big of a deal. Maybe it was the whine.

Knot trying to be the word police hear.

This reminds me of a humorous "Candid camera" segment I saw decades ago.

The question was of people in South Carolina (I believe) was, explain the difference betwen "oil" and "all"

They all answered explaining "all" was what you put in your car and "all" was like when you said "y'all"

I was reading sometimes the exclamation : VIOLA !
Which should be the french ' Et voila ! '
Since viola for me is the color purple (>violet ) or the bigger violin ...

Don't forget the many Leak Toughline or Throughline FM tuners advertised on ebay, some with Brimer valves replacing the original Mallards.
