Although conducted in English, this bulletin board is used by many people for whom English is not their first language. Someone even said here recently that more than 60% are from outside the USA. My English is very bad. I use terrible sentence structures and grammar even though I try to do better. For that reason, many people new to the English language may not understand my bulletins at all. It is important, for the sake of those not expert at this language, for everybody to try to use good grammer, spelling, and punctuation. Of course, "in the heat of the battle," that's hard to do. : ) One frequent poster I'm thinking about has Spanish as his native language. Another has German as his native language. Neither are entirely proficient at the use of the English language. Imagine how much trouble those two have communicating with each other in English! Their problem is evident whenever they occupy the same thread. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ OK. So much for that. Now, back to the "bitmap wars!" Bob D.
