I'm attaching my own community's least fine sign. Intention great; execution, not so much. I'm guessing they shall stay until they fade in sun.
​I love it, Rose! Thanks again!

History Author Show @HistoryDean May 22 
(link: http://DoleKemp96.org) DoleKemp96.org is still live, with a 23-year-old misspelling. Dole had the distinction of being the first presidential candidate to give a URL during a presidential debate -- and he remains an American hero, no matter how you spell it.
​Thank you, Dean, I so appreciate you digging this up for me. You are an honorary hyper-speller!

  • History Author Show @HistoryDean But proofreading is how you know you need IT'S here (it is) not ITS (possessive). Am I right, @wordrefiner? You certainly are correct, Dean!

jennifer laughran @literaticat Jul 6, 2019  I’m sorry how old do they think Virginia Woolf is??? What year are we in??? What is happening???
Jeanne "Play Ball!” Adams @JeanneAdams Jul 6, 2019 
Ummmmm, yeah. Virginia Woolf was born 25 Jan 1882 and died 21 March 1941. None of that equates to 200 years. Hey @wordrefiner, here's one for your "Ooops!" file!
Thank you, Jennifer and Jeanne, I love this! You both are honorary hyper-spellers!

Mackenzie Littledale mostly blackout mode @MackenzieLitt13 Jan 24, 2019 This is motivational, but @wordrefiner have a look. 
A pretty picture. He actually did a decent job of finding a near-homophone for his post. Of course, the spellchecker failed him. I think persevere was the word he wanted. Thanks, Mackenzie, you aare an honorary hyper-speller! ​
