    Hehe and we needed an American to tell us that. I felt it indiscreet to draw attention to that fact considering her motivation..which is why I added it somewhere ( in brackets) without actually pointing to it. Still Texans are known for their President Straight talk.

    Anyways how about the rule if an a precedes a consonant or a vowel ? I noticed recently some interesting anomalies..

    Also the i before e rule needs some clarification .

    Neither, nor, either, or..all possible candidates for the completer guide.

    The correct form is it's, because in actuality you are making a contraction of It is
