You might be wrong there! :D its really not a snob thing, I have nothing to be snobbish about. It's a right and wrong thing that's factual. Just like when you know what's right and wrong with wheel sizes. You care about that, I care about grammar. :wink:

I get your factual viewpoint & nothing wrong in caring about grammar but in life not everyone gets the same upbringing or education & therefore may not always be 100% grammatically in their spoken or written word . There could also be some form of dyslexia involved ? For those reason's i find it snobbish & aloof to want to correct workmates , strangers or friends , that's just my own opinion of course & not offered to offend . I do correct my offspring though as i think that's a fathers duty :oops:
