Why bother ... sometimes confidence is mistaken for arrogance. Sometimes
arrogance is, well, just arrogance. I have a number of grade sevens who
insist that there is no real difference between where and were ... or their,
there, and they're ... they also don't know the difference between the
meanings of it's and its. They all do it. I know what they are trying to
