Spelling

Hi,
Two things:
1. P38,
How is it that you can spell well (100%) yet write crappy (60%)? .....Obviously oral spelling bee testing :wink:

2. I was a product of the pass/fail era, but now work with and tutor and retrain and help and assist and do the work of many tradies and technicians that were a product of the comp or not yet comp phenomonen.
My only gripe with that system is that when I am forced to assess a promotion candidate, or job applicant as 'not yet competent', I can't add a qualifier ....like.....

'and never will be' :?
or
'sat wrong test, this one was too hard' https://www.aulro.com/afvb/
or
'and unlikely to ever become competent' https://www.aulro.com/afvb/
or
'cos he/she is dumb as dog poop'

Regards
Ralph

I posted the same thing on the Overlander forum and there were lots of adverse reactions.

On here we had a bit of a laugh.

I don't correct that many posts on fora but when I do, I try to do it so we can have a bit of fun with it, e.g. like the post about diving Doris down the coast.

Yes, we tend to have a sense of humour, need one to own a LR I've always said.

I like having a stir over on the OL forum and the uninformed Toyota/Nissan blokes views on LR amuses me. Blokes bang on about how unreliabl;e LR's are without wanting or knowing the facts. Tell them Toyotas have mechanical and general problems they burn you at the steak 8O

The annoying thing about OL is the over-the-top moderation and too much political correctness (hope I spelt it right) for my liking.

Now thats a picture of a real Scooner, would like to know if he finished it. I would like to tackle that on a hot day.
Oh and by the way if you cant spell like me just type then cut and paste it to Word to check spelling.

If you use Internet Explorer, use this add-on which can be popped up by right clicking in the message box:

http://www.iespell.com/

Then you won't need to cut and paste. You can configure it for English (UK).

Ron

That dose work easier, thanks for the tip.

It won't pick up correctly spelt but incorrectly used words https://www.aulro.com/afvb/

Actually I set mine to English (US) because it takes a month of Sundays to ignore the US spellings embedded in this Forum due to being powered by the phpBB platform:

<span style="color:blue">"color" for instance when Zook posts.</span>
