Additionally, in case you were wondering:

1. They're (http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/They're)

Contraction they're = they are

2. There (http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/There)

Adverb there =

a. In or at that place.

b. In that matter, relation, etc.; at that point, stage, etc., regarded as a distinct place; as, he did not stop there, but continued his speech.

[Or, in my usage: Realistically--there is probably no way that she could have regained the use of even her legs that fast.]

c. To or into that place; thither

3. Their (http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Their)

Possessive determiner their = belonging to them.

They will meet tomorrow at their convenience.
This is probably their cat.



.....no cheating on the test! ;)

I do think it's very important.
I wish there was a test on there for punctuation. I'd be posting links to it daily.

:rotfl: Im sure Id be marked up in your book! :p I never put in punctuation (specifically apostrophes) online. I figure anyone who has had a high school education can read between the lines and take my meaning. Besides, it takes too much time and I type too fast. God bless you Microsoft Word!

Id never make that mistake in RL though! :p
