| Nuclear Duck Hunter  | http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?q...ar&FORM=MSNHM1 IG, With Memorial Day coming soon, there will be a lot of sources for her such as the one I listed. I read some of these over the weekend and some are from the men and women who fought and some are from politicians. Some are pro and some are con. I sure hope your friend, whatever she feels about the war, is feeling/doing better. I can sympathize with her. School and personal problems are a real challenge.

| Milforum Hitman | This is the final version of the essay: She patiently rewrote it trying to tone it down. Her teacher is superliberal so doesn't mind as long as it goes left, but still. Is it better now? Removed by IG for privacy issues. Last edited by Italian Guy; May 10th, 2006 at 20:57. |

| Tribunus Laticlavius  | Oi oi, you forgot one!!!! I paid specific attention to those common slip ups: 1) Sargent Shriver and Office of Economic Opportunity Supporters (OEO) She miss spelled sargeant. 2) She sometimes uses a dot between the names of the authors and sometimes not. 3) A People & A Nation should be underlined, just like the rest of the titles. Nothing big I know, but all details should be perfect for an A, shouldn't it? p.s Take a look at the bibliography, because she/you is/are being inconsistend with the exclamation marks. Just my tuppence worth.

| Milforum Hitman | I'm sorry Ted I left you out. You are a teacher. Maybe I was only thinking about English-speaking ones. But of course your help is welcomed. You know I'm as much a perfectionist as you are  |
