none the less a correction of grammer was all that i posted. no malicious intent or jokes were made. just an observation. many people on here post spelling mistakes and that's in addition to the over the top internet "toon dialect" that some people post with on here- as a Campbeltonian i don't even understand it- how are non-locals supposed to??!?

none the less i will post accordingly.
