In the meantime I'll check on the then versus than.
There were several obvious "checker traps" in my post, and you only found that one? tsk tsk ...

It's been half a century, but I still remember Kathleen Walsh in grade school beating me in the Spelling Bee. She got to represent our school. I whooped her in math though.

Normally I don't comment on such things, but your error changed the meaning completely. Then is used sequentially in causal events "if this then that." Than is used comparatively like "better this than that."

Just trying to lighten up the thread.

Anybody seen Harold?

Somebody call CMW. Harold usually shows up when the ladies post.
