Subject: RE: BS: Internet Laziness
None of us is perfect.. the only problem I have with poor grammar or spelling, is that sometimes it is just not possible to understand what the poster is trying to say. All you have to do is write can, when you mean can't and it changes the whole meaning. I got an e mail from my insurance man the other day, and, it is so sloppily written, I just dont know what he was saying. I have never seen anything that bad in the mudcat postings. here is that note from my insurance man. I asked him if he received the pictures of my guitars which he asked for.

SURE DID AND ARE WE GETTING SOME? ANSWERED NOW AND I'LL GET BACK TO YOU ONE IS IF YOU CAN PLACE A DOLLAR AMOUNT ON THEM

Thats exactly as I got it no punctuation marks, and quite baffling as to what he was trying to say. Am I being picky?
