Another MPQ question

[Roland]

Hiya Roland,

I have a bit of an off-topic suggestion for you.  Please don't take this the wrong way -- I'm just trying to helpful.  I've read numerous posts made by you over the years, and I think now is about the time to correct you on something.  You are making the same mistake that many people make.  Heck, I used to be one of the worst offenders before I was soundly corrected.

"Alot" is not a word.  You wouldn't say "alittle", would you? :)

"A lot" is perfectly fine, however.

And it's one of the ONLY grammatical / spelling errors I let myself get away with. I'll delete a ten-page sentence to get an error at the beginning, but somehow I ALWAYS miss that "alot" bit. I try to spell it "a lot", but sometimes I just plumb screw it up and not notice.

I'm well aware of my mistakes. ;) Or rather, THE mistake. Just now when I make them. ;) Thanks for the heads up though. :D
