Hello,
I was looking through your sight and came across this chat forum. I was interested in becoming a member, that's how I ended up here. I think Mississauga made a good point. After all, isn't the purpose of joining to improve yourself?? Mine is! So, if the company don't care to advertize the write way than why join???

Just my too sence.....

Dee,
Is your use of "sence" a joke? I didn't see a after it. If it's a mistake then please understand that mistakes are inevitable.

PSYCHOLOGY: !!! Uh-Oh !!! The expectation that the government should be perfect, the corporations should not make mistakes, that all the ambulances should show up pronto is just a projection of our PARENTAL expectations onto society. Any time you want someone to be perfect, which is really impossible, you are projecting your parental expectations.

Real life is filled w/ protection & nourishment, but it is also filled w/ abandonment & betrayal. The very body that helps us thru << life is the same body that will abandon us in death.

Jung pointed out: It is important not to seek perfection. It is important to see wholeness. The trigger word for wholeness today is, centered.

ALL of LS products do help us to get centered b/c their products deal w/ the integration of the Left & the Right sides of the b-r-a-i-n.

Good luck to us all

Dee, I hate to discredit your existence, but you wouldn't happen to have an alter-ego?

I notice that the "Location:" in your profile is that of "Mississaugua ON Canada".

I wonder if you and Mississauga are friends? I further wonder if the two of you share the same IP address... or the same computer, or the same pair of hands, even.

Not bad for an illiterate SOB!

haha

Good observation, Brian.

I think I can speak for the rest of us when I say that a purposeful deception is many times more degrading than any minor grammactical mistake.

Again, I suggest you consider a re-evaluation of your world views, and while you're at it, factor in values as well.

How very cool......if you just look at Brian's thing & do a soft gaze, you can see both tongues pop out.

A very worthwhile eye exercise for soft gazing!

Two items:

1) I welcome corrections. We do not always use proper grammar. When folks point out problems, we will make an effort to correct the piece.

The ad in question was created by one of our distributors and approved by us. At this point, they may or may not make the change.

2) And for those who do not understand the hubbub, read the note from one of our editors:

Quick, quicker, quickest is correct.

We have two forms of comparatives--more/most and -er/-est.

Most adjectives and adverbs of one syllable form their comparative and superlative degrees by adding -er and -est.

Some adjectives and adverbs of two syllables use -er/-est and some use more/most. Check the dictionary to be sure.

Adjectives of more than two syllables and adverbs ending in -ly usually form their comparative and superlative degrees by more/most.

The logic is that a word that's already long is too long for comfortable articulation when it's burdened with another syllable.

But, "more quickly"? That was my point.
As for the posting by "DEE", perhaps the persons commenting are unaware that I am on a DSL shared connection. A discussion ensued in my office complex in regards to the radio ad error and, obviously, "DEE" took it upon themselves to provide their input. I do not share the opinions of others that may comment on my original posting. Nor was I impressed by the post.
My final comment is this; if it were my money paying for expensive advertising, I would either check the ad and it's related copy prior to airing OR present the possibilty of remuneration from those outside my company that may have caused the error.
Thank you all for your comments.
