Guest Eagle73 Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 Grammar Nazi (mockingly, grammer natzee; alternatively capitalized and uncapitalized), spelling Nazi, and language Nazi are all terms used to describe a participant in a discussion (usually online) who criticizes or habitually corrects the language usage of another participant. Such a person is often accused of flaming as a result of finding fault with minor details of other participants' messages and often only in opinions with which the accused grammar Nazi disagrees. Participants in these discussions often end up taking opposite sides in a prescription versus description debate, without realizing it.The many exceptions and intricacies of the English language can present a problem for even the most experienced user. This, combined with the frequency of typographical errors caused by the desire to post quickly on instant messengers, often makes it very easy to find an error in a message with which to find fault. In other languages, if spelling is not an issue, moods, agreement, diacritics, and tenses provide an ample supply of possibilities for misunderstanding and argument.Grammar Nazis can sometimes focus solely on the stylistic manner by which an issue comes across, which is viewed at times as an ad hominem attack, but grammar Nazis retort that grammatical and spelling errors and stylistic flaws may make an argument hard to follow, making various people (whether or not they are actually grammar Nazis) want to correct the flaws, and then, after they have sorted out what the substance of the argument in question is, dive into the debate itself.Uhhhh What? ???

adminbaberuth Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 The area of low pressure crossing Florida today is expected to develop into a tropical depression by late Thursday. The developing storm is expected to strike the Gulf Coast anywhere between Mobile Bay and Port Lavaca, Texas, this weekend.

KFDM COOP Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 Recent Satellite loops and the Tampa Bay long range radar show that anon-tropical low pressure system (93L) appears to be reforming off thesouthwest coast of Florida. This is an important shift, since it brings thesurface low underneath the upper level low pressure system aloft--the samekind of situation one finds in ordinary non-tropical "cutoff lows". This isan unusual event in September over the Gulf of Mexico, and is good news forthose potentially living in the path of 93L. A surface low pressure systemvertically aligned with a cold-cored upper level low will usually take a dayor two to make the transition to a warm-cored tropical storm. During thiskind of transition, rapid strengthening is rare, and the chances of 93L everreaching hurricane strength now appear dim. The latest (12Z, 8am EDT)intensity forecasts from the GFDL and HWRF computer models keep keep 93Lbelow hurricane strength, as does the 18Z (2pm EDT) SHIPS intensity model.The HWRF model indicates that 93L will come ashore at tropical depressionstrength, and this is entirely possible.The forecast tracks from the latest cycle of model runs all show a landfallbetween central Louisiana and Pensacola, Florida on Saturday morning. Theexceptions are the NOGAPS and ECMWF models, which show a Sunday morninglandfall near the Texas/Louisiana border. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tvc184 Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 If you don't get it then you never will!!Hey Ned, read it again. I only changed his words from "us" to hitting "anyone". You have to read his original post to realize that. You are reading something into it that is not there. I don't play spelling Nazi. It would take up too much of my time but I have a great photo that you can copy if you want to continue to play one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shorttexas1 Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Right now it is not even a tropical depression!! SO let's stop calling it a hurricane! I don't want it here but it may not have a chance to develop into anything more that a CAT 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FPHS 78 Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 didnt call it anything, i was just wondering where rita was "supposed" to land Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael_Myers Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 And it could be worse than a Category 1. Just know the entire Gulf Coast needs to be on watch and someone is going to have to deal with "Jerry" and it's not going to be any fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
