Nov 19, 2001 7:02 PM | | I realize that spelling is not a life or death matter; and I also realize that few people today grade other people on the quality of their spelling. However, the word is 'gauge' not 'guage'.
Since this word crops up repeatedly on the cable forum, let's all make a Xmas resolution to spell it correctly. That's all for now. :-) |

Nov 23, 2001 8:30 AM | | What's so "delicate" about the proper spelling of a word? Norm, you're such a drama queen. I thought this topic was sure to be full of fun and stimulating interaction... |
