I probably shouldn't say too much since I often make spelling and grammatical errors. The difference, as I see it, is I continually attempt to improve my methods whereas others habitually repeat the same mistake(s).

The use of the word "than" when it is not necessary.

The proper use of the words "than" and "which."

The use of the phrase "to be perfectly honest." My internal warning system is activated when I hear or read this phrase (haven't they been honest up to this point, or are they about to deceive me).

Just my thoughts,

T.R.

P.S. Hope I get a "B." (under achiever)
