    Spelling & Grammar Better Here?

    Folks,
    Is it me or is the spelling & grammar amongst pistol shooters running a better average than in General?
    I know there's fewer of us but I'm talking average, maybe we're an older average age?
    Thoughts?

    You're starting to talk like Americans.

    I told everyone here, when Jan and I came back from one of our trips to England, that it was refreshing being around some people, for a change, who could actually say things other than "uummm", "like", "DUDE!", and TOTALLY AWESOME!!!"

    Fear not Jim,
    I was merely joshing with young Sol in a vernacular similar to that used in his original and amusing response!

    They'll probably say, "COOOOL!" in response.

    I don't mind teenagers talking like teenagers, but it's gotten to the point here where 75 year old members of the US Senate are using expressions such as "I didn't intend to DIS him, but..."



    I can't wait for MikeB to get involved with this discussion: it's too bad we won't be able to see his "home boy hand signs"!

    It's got to be the better class of shooter found here. Altogether a more intellectual pastime is pistol shooting. I mean, even our tame student is reading PHYSICS for goodness sake, not "media studies" or some such similar nonsense.

    Either that or, being a little bit more technically aware than the rifle shooters, we have found out how to use the spell checker.
