I got a lecture because I did not leave a space after a comma.

Ah, so the grammer police have already written you a warning, LOL! I forgot to tell you that certain words are ok to misspell, like hugh and series. And watch out for cheese eating mooses that can bite your sister. Those bites can be nasti....and you'll likely get your beeber stuned a few times here on FR.

Sorry, MEG33. I meant to direct that response to wiz.

That is as it should be. To reference a lesson that cost me over $100,000 to learn:

"Your thoughts have only so much worth as the form in which they are presented. Thought and form are one, and will be judged as one. Thus any error in presentation, to include spelling and punctuation, at the very least calls into question the worth of the thought being presented.

Errors in grammar, spelling , syntax and punctuation are just that, errors. As errors, they are a failure to properly express your thought and therefore will result in a grade of "F" for the assignment.

These errors will be noted on your work in red, which is not to be mistaken for ink. It is the blood I sweat over every word you write. By the time you complete this course, you will be able to write and communicate your thoughts."
