This sort of thing baffles me. This is the fking internet, you can't post on PH without being connected to it! How long would it take to have checked that spelling? If you google it, it returns results for 'cortege'. It's one thing to spell a word incorrectly, but to suspect that you are misspelling a word and instead of checking, write (sp?) after it banghead

Internet - with a capital "I" when you are talking about the public global network. It's not hard to search for the correct usage wink

Hmm, I'll have to take care to use a capital when I'm using proper nouns.




Look what I found on the Internet
