@Duchess64

Can I just clarify the conditions you require in order for us to compare our level of literacy:

1. I put up my life savings (at least 100,000 GBP) in a legally binding contract.
2. We use American English for fairness (despite me being near illiterate).
3. The comparative tests to be designed and judged by American professors of English (who will be paid).
4. The contest must be held on Jupiter.
5. The Pope must be present.

@Ghost-of-a-Duke

She's just advertising herself as a super genius, Ghost. Don't let her fool you.
I wish I had a dollar every time she called me illiterate.

And ya know,... in a forum like this, colloquialisms are surely welcome. Notice how Duchess64
jumped me when she thought my use of lunatical was a typo? lol.

We won the war duchess. The Gallipoli campaign was strategic insanity but at the time and in the context of the Somme and similar insanities on the western front it was par for the course.

On the contrary. I have freely acknowledged that I (like other mortal beings) am prone to grammatical errors and before publishing will have my literary work proofread. Only you have set your literacy standards at divine levels and routinely call other people illiterate.

I suspect it was where you said I would threaten you with violence in real life. With your edit however, you have now added:

(though not necessarily from him).

That might save your posts from removal.
