One of these days I'd like to know what drives the ire and hyper-sensitive eye of grammar and spelling-Nazis. Margaret, you're a high school teacher, and I applaud your commitment to teaching the younger generation-that truly is a higher calling, but life is more than spelling errors. English is one language among millions and in the course of hundreds of pages of writing, one will inevitably make a few mistakes. You would make a great newspaper editor.

I would be pretty harsh of you not to forgive spelling errors when you write a phrase like "I can get PASSED . . . . " It's "past."

I agree with you 100%. If only I knew what we know now 15 years ago!

I cant get passed the ignorance in spelling. I am a HS teacher researching jobs and careers to give to my students. I agree with PA MAN.

No body care about other well being , the missions and values of the main insurance , hospitals and healt companies sound look and sound look but the shark appetite for profits are a fact in real life , if not why they oppose the goberment program , why they funnel so much money to the prostitues in the senate so the overhaul in healt care dont pass.

I am ashamed that an American citizen has so little understanding of both health care and the English language. lol... I am a Penn State student. and you are an idiot. Our major focuses on profit and the only way it will ever change is through government intervention...now, for your own good, please obtain an education before speaking your mush...

People who work in the medical field should be there for one main reason: to truly and deeply wanting to help other people with their health. Taking the profit motive out (somehow) of medicine may be the key. Just like the police and fire department are essential agencies for national welfare, so too should be medicine. I am afraid to say the government may have to take over completely in order to distribute fairly and evenly medical assistance for all.
