You are correct on 10. If you bought a ticket and find you can not use it, you should be allowed to sell it. It is not any business of the law.

  13. Okay, it’s just my pet peeve today, but my 17 year old just told me that I probably wouldn’t have been a good English teacher (I teach math), because she can’t trust me to edit her papers. I use too many commas and do other “weird things”. So she only relies on me for spelling (which she’s horrid at). Well I wouldn’t do weird things if the rules hadn’t changed since I was in school!

:smack: that’s what I get for speed reading and having a sun-fried brain :frowning:

They have sun that far north? :eek:

I’m in southern Sweden now. Which admittedly is about as far north as Hudson Bay, but with much fairer winters :slight_smile:
