  I made an effort to remember the difference between its and it's while working on the Masons book, because I didn't want to look like a _total_ moron to the editor/copy editor/etc.
  
  I've never really been able to keep track of the difference before, and I'm sure I'll forget soon, but I think I did a pretty good job while actually writing the book.

    Writing the Cookbook was English Bootcamp for me with Tom. I still remember the day when I finally got that vs which. It was like the day when I got contact lenses--that which had been blurry was now clear. (ho ho, I am so funny)

      Writing with brian in The Perl Review is a bootcamp for me as far as passive sentences.

      Now, passive sentences are easily seen by me as being wrong. They are edited quickly.
