Guest guest Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 " So can I pull a " correction " here and note that it's fairy TALES not fairy TAILS? Who writes this? " I've corrected it. Thanks for noticing the error. The info for the time capsule was copied and pasted from a web site full of interesting facts. I do not remember what the site was, but it ws copied and pasted word for word, not re-typed. So the fault was theirs, not mine.

Guest guest Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 I got in trouble with a few of my teachers for correcting them as well. Quite annoying. Administrator You're welcome -- no problem. At least I can feel " safe " with an occasional correction around other Aspies (maybe they appreciate it as I do)? Not so with my 5th grade teacher. I corrected her spelling three times on the first day of school. Ouch! If I had known then what I know now..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it got you into a lot of trouble but I remember that feeling of wondering what I was doing wrong, asking myself why the teacher disliked me, and thinking that the kids weren't acting too normal for kids.

Guest guest Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 They do not put it out. I set the calendar to automatically post information that I plugged into it. The people who created the facts that I copied (legally, I might add) messed up the spelling. Administrator Yahoo! puts this out so I suppose the entity to send your commentary in to would be Yahoo! Good catch, Catherin! :-D Raven Co-Administrator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
