I would suggest learning the difference in your and you're.

Thanks for pointing that out. I would guess that only 10% of FReepers understand the difference in context between "your" and "you're." Sad.

As long as we’re going slightly off topic and discussing differences, I notice that “then” and “than” are regularly abused on FR. And elsewhere as well.

“They know better then that.” Etc.
