hi,
quick reply. (The faster I go, the behinder I get; Warner Broth's cartoon I
think)
Punctuation: nope. I can't do it. ^_* I try, and it's not as bad as it was,
but I just don't see a lot of this stuff. I'm not sure if it's myopia or
dyslexia or stupidity, but I have a LOT of trouble with that stuff. I'm always
amazed at people who can do it so effortlessly. I apreciate your efforts (and
those of Gary Kleppe and others.) When i send stuff off to publishers, I pay
someone to clean it up for me. ^_O
[Well, if you are like me, and it appears that you are in certain respects,
you need someone to nag you about it until you finally get it right. Two or
three people have undertaken the onerous task of doing that for me.
Unfortunately for you, they don't write stories so absolutely, the only way
I have to pay them back is to pay their efforts forward and try to improve
my own skills. You came along with this story at just the right time in my
own development. I still do not catch all my own errors.
Consistency Checks:
Nettles: Those were the delivery vehicle, coated with toxins, not source
of toxins.
[Okay, that wasn't clear to me on a first reading. If no one else raises the
question, consider the matter safely closed.]
Prescripion: I admit i fudged a bit on that. I didn't find anything that would
preclude that happening in Japan. And in US, I at least, have had the doctor
give me a prescription to fill, while someone was still in the hospital and
give care instructions. That way you can make any special preparations for
home care ahead of time.
[Fair enough. I withdraw the objection.]
Thanks again for all the help.
[Glad to be of "help".]
Now, back to work revising unposted chapters. who knows, I might get lucky and
actually catch a punctuation error on my own. (I might win the lottery too.
^_O)
Oh, you'll get it right eventually. You'll get so tired of reading my C&C
that you won't have any other choice.
Don.
