Did I do something wrong in my comment? If I did, I'M SORRY!!  :'( :'( :'(

I meant to be snarky and was talking about the way reading ANY error ANYWHERE makes me react. I tend to be a Grammar Nazi IRL ...

Quantus has the right of it; I'm a copyeditor (not on Jim's novels [yet], more's the pity). It's precisely because of the "twinge" reaction that I first began working as one. :)

I think I read that here a couple years ago, now that I think about it. What's needed is MORE of the good ones, and less of the dumb bosses who say, "Just run it through spell check. It'll be fine."
