Of course, my lack of typing ability took over when I attempted to type
"...not just seeing it as a..." in my last reply.

Gregg's pet peeves:
First of all, what does a peeve look like, and why would anyone want one as
a pet?
Peeve #1: Apostrophes: when in doubt, leave them out! You will be correct
more often than not.
Its = Belonging to it. For example, "Look at the sky. Its color is blue."
It's = It is. For example, "It's hot today."
It's = It has. For example, "It's been nice talking to you."
Its' = completely incorrect usage. Stop it!
Peeve #2: Your vs. You're
"Your" means belonging to you, as in, "It's your truck."
"You're" means "You are." Example, you're probably about ready to throttle
me for this peeve!
