*Sigh* At least I'm not the only one !
Felt a right dumb-ass after starting this thread, to then not check what
I was sending !!
Like I said, that'll learn me.

Sigh! I did the unpardonable: I went back and revised part of a
sentence without reading it after I revised it. Originally, it was
"There seems to be employment opportunity for..." and then I changed it
to what you see without renegotiating the necessary agreement between
subject and verb.
I'm a passable, fair to middlin' writer, but I'm a really miserable
proofreader. As the old Southern commedian Brother Dave Gardner used to
say, "I may not be grammatical, but, by God, I'm communicable."
