Thanks for bringing that up, JD. One of my "pet peeves" on here is people belittling others for their poor spelling, punctuation and grammar. Just recently, someone repeatedly misspelled Super A as Supper A. I wondered how long it would take for someone to make a smart-aleck comment about it, and sure enough, it was not long in coming.
Folks have varying degrees of expertise in different areas. Just because someone can't spell or use proper grammar doesn't mean he's stupid- he may have forgotten more about machining or tractor repair than we'll ever know. I write for a living, and I guess I would be in as good a position as anyone to correct others- but I don't. I just read their posts as best I can, and respond to the gist of it, not the presentation. Yes, sometimes posts are virtually unreadable- in that case, just move on to the next without comment. As our mothers used to tell us, "If you can't say something nice, just don't say anything."
I must qualify the above, to a small extent. I used to correct people on the spelling of a word that they might want to Google- "Kabota" comes to mind. In the early days of Google, you had to have the word spelled correctly to get any results. But then one day I Googled "Kabota", and it said "Did you mean Kubota" and gave a zillion hits. So I've even quit doing that.

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
