Janice; I'm poor at grammar, but I do know to use "people who", instead of "people that". Here is one that gets my goat.. "A mind is a terrible thing to waste " they said that to be poetic or something but how many kids hear it and attach to a meaning of the mind being a terrible thing. I'm an 8th grade drop out, yet for a collage to coin such a statement as that has from the first time I heard it caused me to wonder just how bright they are. Any how; who minds wasting terrible things ? Jim
