I really like my clients and they really like my work, so I do not think
I will be looking for 'more knowledgeable' clients anytime soon. Granted
I may be porting their legacy applications to Winnt but that is their
decision
to make. It is my opinion that source code and comments should not be
touched
by any self-appointed spelling and grammar checker, period. I am not the
only
one who holds this position.

Concerning getting laughed out of there I do not see that as likely.
Concerning being a Microsoft bootlicker, I can assure you that I am not.
However, that thought did cross my mind concern Trevor.
Concerning be a troller, again I can assure you that I am not.
However, once again that thought did cross my mind concerning Trevor.
