Mission Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Following on from the Let's Educate Each Other thread, I give you... Fact or Fiction. Simple rules - post something that you believe to be fact (ie correct and/or true) in an attempt to educate others and share your knowledge - it can be anything you like. Be warned however that if you post something that is fiction, you run the risk of being corrected (possibly at length) but you'll be somewhat wiser after the event. Todays opening nugget is... There/their/they're EG: Over there / there are Their things / their thread They're going to the cinema tonight / they're doing a great job Continue... NB: Please try and keep on topic and resist bitching (I know it's hard for some). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
