Default MAILING ON JUNE 26


Hee hee. *I missed that mistake! *Makes me wonder if the magazine is as well
written!

I've found a few spelling and grammatical errors in the magazine, but
I'm rather anal about such things. Overall, I've found the magazine
to be well-written. One should also consider that there are
contributors whom are not writing in their first language... how much
correction should an editor perform upon a contribution?

E-mail, however, is another medium; people tend to be less careful in
their writing habits when sending e-mail. As evidence, hopefully
without starting a major flame-war, I will point out that Jim's, "Hee
hee.", is missing a comma, plus, "well written", should be hyphenated.

That being said, Americans may have a bit harder time with the
magazine due to the fact that it is written in English.
