for anyone whose first language is english please use to or too correctly as it is starting to get to me how much it is being misused.
for anyone for whom english is a second language if something was too hard or too easy then it's too. if something is the same then use too ie i think so too. see http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/too

You still haven't edited your OP properly yet.

Where I come from, the first word in a sentence starts with a capital letter.

You made that error three times.

It's (notice the apostrophe for 'it is' ) rather funny that your complaint about grammar was full of errors and I'm bored so I thought I'd point that out like everyone else did.



gwammarr wules!!!

The reason I haven't capitalised my first post, is at the time of writing I didn't see it as a mistake as I explained later through the thread. I should have got the its/it's right so that's why I changed that. Also if I am being criticised for not doing it later in the thread but I have changed it all so it looks right, that could be confusing to people coming to the thread later.

I have tried to take the criticism in good grace and I had hoped this was clear from my later posts in this thread. I am not sure that it is fair that I have been called a knob, by someone who later edited their post to say they shouldn't have used the term but in the same edit reiterated the insult. I did not attack or insult anyone and it has been misunderstood that my initial post was directed at non-native english speakers.

Of course now I have opened myself up to whole new line of insults, which more than likely will make me leave this forum, lose my interested and excitement in cycling. Many of you may say good riddance... fair enough.

I hope that answers your question Mountain Goat.

Please remember that english is not the native language of many people who write here. As long as what is written is understandable, it is acceptable.

I am moving this to the cafe.

Sorry, Frl. Westemeyer, but languages and nationalities are ALWAYS capitalized in English.
