Re: Grammar Question

["Parker, Cassandra M. (EXCH)" <CMPARKER -at- INTERMEDIA -dot- COM>]

A GREAT BIG "THANK YOU" TO EVERYONE WHO REPLIED.  All responses have
been compiled into one document (w/o names) and will be passed on to
others in my group that wanted to argue or have a heavy discussion about
this issue.  They can read the replies and come to their own
conclusions.

I have what I need and thanks to ALL.

Cassandra

P.S.  I am forwarding the responses on to others so they can see that
what I said about this list is true.  You guys (and girls) are great
when help is needed and this is an awesome list.

THANKS AGAIN.
