2 things:[list=1][*] This is an topic for the 'Site Feedback' forum (if you're not just joking around, which I think you are, it being Friday night and all);[*] We did have a post about this back in March (on Site Feedback), and Ant said that all pages are generated by the UBB software on the fly, so as far as he knows, spell check is not a supported feature.[/list=a]
Anyway, whose grammar or spelling would we use, anyway? American English (yeah, right), or Oxford's (probably)? So then everybody but Ant and SteveC feels like a putz who can't spell ?
I don't mind poor spelling as long as I can figure out what people are trying to say, so I don't think you should worry about it.
Can I have some of the cider (I assume it's 'hard' cider we're talking about here)? It's Friday night, after all.
Hurry , btw, you know the GA servers have weekends off lately

Het is ook niet aan te bevelen iets proberende te vertalen dat in elkaar zittende zo grammaticaal ingewikkeld is, dat de vertaalde uitkomst van het vertalende mechanisme minder begrijpbaar is dan de lap tekst origineel geschreven zijnde door de oorspronkelijke schrijver.
Try that with Babelfish! (and list the contents here?) ;-)
