ORIGINAL: crystalamber hi all, i just wanted to say that i'm from Nebraska, as well. Nebraska does have a lot of things wrong with it, but blanket-statements are not fair to those of us who are decent people. every place on earth has idiots and jerks---they are not region-specific. just my imho pet peeve. blessings, crystal amber The comment was that this guy is from Nebraska combined with the grammatical errors he was making. . . this did not seem like an English as a Second Language problem for the incomprehensibility of his posts. The example given was that foriengers have trouble with English idioms, humor, and things like that, not confusing an apostrophe with a comma. It was not that all people living in NE are idiots, it was that he was an idiot and did not know how to use the English language even though he lived in the US and was not likely to be an ESL person. Sorry that you felt slighted.
