Having been schooled at the University of Virginia, (Thomas Jefferson, McGuffey Reader and all that), I believe it is my duty and not the GrammarNazi's to point out for our Moderators that "There" means over that way and that it should be "their" to show possession as in ...'There certainly are a lot of avenues for them to post their thoughts still be able to stay on topic.' 'They're really fine young gentlemen.' Also, one should send "Congrats" to someone not "Congrads" who I believe are convicts who have successfully matriculated state prison! LMAO -Poleon

I always say Congrad's...always. And the "there, their" thing, when i'm writting a big paper for school I make sure I do things right but it's a forum.

Thank you Poleon. They're, their and there, while I know it's minor, also drives me CRAZY when I see them used incorrectly. You can play grammarnazi anytime. There is a mon I know, Poleon, I believe, who pointed out that they're using their words incorrectly, in a nice way. What a guy.
