[mythtv-users] OT: Where did i go wrong?!?! Capture Problem

[Billy Macdonald]

I have to ask.  You used various spellings for "you" and "your" in the message.
 hue, yew, yore, yore, hew, ewe. 

Why?  I thought it was funny since when I read the original there were a bunch
of 1's and 2's in there that made it hard for me to read but I was wonder if
you were thinking the same thing.  Or do you just know how to spell every other
word in you message except those :)

Thanks,
Billy
