Hi, this is to some recent posters, and a reminder to everyone. Loose is
> the opposite of tight, lose is the opposite of find.

And unfortunately, spell check sees them both as correct, because it doesn't
compare content to context =)

I think if we were all to spend the time to proofread every character of
what we typed in e-mail to the List when we send it, much less would be
sent.... and maybe that WOULD be a GOOD thing!

With that in mind, I'm sure everyone has seen the joke being sent around
with all the rampant misspellings in it that you can read easily because the
brain processes words in the stings it sees them in and tends to discount
many factors, including spelling... and I know Lorinda has our best
interests in mind (because I know her personally!) but all the same, lose or
loose is okay by me

I can't count all the times I type knwo, soem, tge, etc... I have two
fingers that type much quicker than the others... they just can't help
themselves!!!

=) Larry
