I apologize, I have been using an old Compaq laptop with Widoze on it to check 
my blood glucose monitor.  I thought I had the HTML turned off and was using 
text.  It occurs to me, writing good grammar is some what akin to writing 
good code.  Besides I can't blame the Californiamschool system for my finicky 
grammar.  It was my Mother.  She was a lot meaner than Mrs. Christie or Mrs. 
Meyers.  Also I had her for more years.
