Zero,

I could not read more than a few lines of your review because your writing skills are so poor. Even the basic stuff, like your failure to differentiate between "your" and "you're," was on the level of an elementary school child. Your spelling, grammar and use of punctuation were all atrocious; your sentence structure even worse. And the "Net-speak" only managed to make you look illiterate.

Frankly, Zero, were you to give me something of this caliber, I would fire you. Were I a teacher and this review your homework, I would fail you. What you produced, no matter your intentions, was horrible. I cannot speak for the *content*, mind you, because the presentation was so awful I could not bear myself to read any more than necessary. And that is why you failed. You had an opinion to express, yet it would take a mind as rotted as your own to absorb your message, because no *educated* person would tolerate the manner in which you expressed yourself.

Please, do not attempt to become a writer. Do not presume you have any skills at presenting an opinion or disseminating information. Do not assume you can represent intellect through the written word. You may be able to create fake blood on a computer screen - I am sure your parents are proud (and yes, your mod work was actually very good, though the preceding line was sarcastic in nature) - but you most certainly cannot make a persuasive argument via text.

That's my review or your review.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Who really gives a flying turd ??
