again, thank you for the correct spelling of ‘heroin.’

since all of us are not perfect, may i kindly point out in your note that “Heroin” is a opiate” that before the word “opiate” it should correctly read “an” rather than “a.”

but that is no biggy so if it doesn’t really matter, it doesn’t really matter.

after all, it’s the main gist of the post that is a marvel.

You used the word “heroin” many times in your article. I wasn’t pointing out that you misspelled it once. I was pointing out that you misspelled it EVERY TIME you used it, which indicated that you did not know you were using the wrong word.

I also pointed out that your mispelling of the word actually made the article seem to be about something else entirely, and I wasn’t the only person to think it was a Palin hit-piece.

Even then, I blamed it on your spell-checker, which is a common mistake these days. Other people called you illiterate. Not me.

You commented (in Post #13) on my spell-checker theory, and then came back several hours later (after no further comment from me) and posted this snarky little comment about my incorrect use of a/an. So, if you want to play like that, keep in mind that my mistake was a typo. Your mistake was due to ignorance. Does that make you feel better now? Now you can claim that everyone was mean to you when you posted your article on FR and misspelled the most important word in it because you lacked the vocabulary to recognize that there is another word spelled “heroine”.

Congrats! You win.
