"Monetary" is misspelled.

I usually pronounce "your" and "you're" the same. Not always, but usually. And even though I know the difference, I sometimes make a mistake and use the shorter version when my thoughts outrace my fingers.

I also pronounce "cot" and "caught" the same. Mostly. And "marry" and "merry". And lots of others where English speakers from other countries might notice more of a difference.

Attacking someone's spelling or grammar mistake on the internet, unless it's especially egregious and cannot be interpreted, is usually the hallmark of a person who has no legitimate argument.


That's a bit like calling a suicide bomber a coward. Lets see you have the guts to do it. But now that i know wynco is choosing to write and speak incorrectly, it would be appropriate for me to withdraw my congratulations to him on being able to write working software.
