Way to go! You know not to trust the MS Grammar Check and you know "no" from "know." Now, go forth and spread the good word (or at least, the proper use of apostrophes).

Almost wish HTC made you do this quiz, and hit a certain score before you are allowed to post.



Jeez, you're almost as pedantic as I am.

The three most common expressions (or famous last words) in military aviation are:'Did you feel that?' 'What's that noise?' and'Oh S...!'

Only 85%.  I wish it would say where i went wrong, grammar has never been my strong point.  Though, in comparison to some of the shockers i see on this board, i'm not too bad.   I'll be buying a grammar book at some stage this year, i 've an interview with the RN admiralty this year.

Illegal use of a comma.  No need for a comma after HT.  If you spoke it it would sound like: "I don't thin this will ever be a requirement by HT...though...Think about it."

If we're splitting hairs!

P.S.  100% :D

100%  Was easier than I thought it would be.
Do not attribute to malice what can be easily explained by incompetence, fear, ignorance or stupidity, because there are millions more garden variety idiots walking around in the world than there are blackhearted Machiavellis.
