Andy, I work at a large law firm in NYC and you'd be amazed at what I see. There are quite a few people around here who think they are incredibly intelligent (they prove this by being condescending towards pretty much everyone), yet literally do not know the difference between "your" and "you're." I can't tell you how many e-mails I've received containing a sentence as such: "Your wrong. The correct way...." It's unbelievable..

Now, to get completely segwayed into off-topic oblivion - My pet peeve is the mispronunciation of "height" as highth. Whenever I hear that on any one of those Speed TV tech shows, my hackles go up.

Here's an easy test:

Interrogation Question 1: When you enter a room and it's dark, what do you turn on?

Answer: The light

Interrogation Question 2: If you are not wrong you are?

Answer: Right

Interrogation Question 3: When you go the doctor and he measures how tall you are, he measures your?

Answer: Height

Ok, enough of my inane ramblings. Everyone can now go back to misspelling and mispronouncing their postings as officially dictated by their individual, regional dialects.
