I instantly classify people who cannot spell or punctuate as likely to present poorly thought through, half-baked ideas.
You will probably find that they are cruel to kittens, as well.

Deen is correct. The tilt stays the same so in the winter the northern hemisphere is tilted away so it's colder as were slightly further away from the sun. In the summer were tilted slightly closer so it's warmer.

Thanks to Mikeveal for the expanded explanation, I'm beginning to rethink the Omega main dealer rebuild since there is such a difference in price and previous customer's seem to be happy with the services. .

Thinking of the future is why i spend my summer working on a farm, whilst im studying business at university its nice to know ive allways got a back up career that will allways be needed. Someone a lot smarter than me once said that you need a doctor on average 3 times a year over the course of your life, you need a farmer three times a day.

What I don't understand about plurals employing the apostrophe, is why it doesn't apply to all plurals in the deranged minds of the guilty? If it's "thirty-something's" (I think it should be hyphenated, but I'm not sure), then why is it not "club's"?

Sitting here thinking about it, doesn't the heading of this thread require a "?" at the end?
