A X1 gas tank should hold a little over 4 gallons correct?

Glad I found this post, I've been telling people 4.6 gallons when they ask.

While on the subject of capacity.. how much does a FI manta tank hold?

sorry I tried to stay quiet but it's eating at my brain..

Conformation is changing to be more closely aligned with a socially popular standard.

Confirmation is reassurance that an original thought or idea is correct.

>>>I am sure you have NEVER misspelled anything

Don't feel bad . . . I just came from a "complimentary" vs. "complementary" debate.

Bothered me that a fairly well educated individual didn't know.

Let's hope we never get Erik Buell in here . . . . his Mother was an English teacher and he (damnit) has spectacular grammar and vocabulary. Dave and I have tried to outsmart him for years and all we have are boxes full of memos showered in red ink!

Yeah, the only thing that got me, and I admit I was a smarta** on my reply, is that there seams to be a higher and higher level of people on this board just starting to try to prove the others wrong. Or to point out mistakes and then it turns into an argument. If you look at the start of this thread I started it, I then said it was over. I found my answer. It should have died there. Then someone did go ahead and confirm it and that is fine. However, what in the world did a spelling lesson add to the thread? Kinda one of those things that if you don't have anything nice to say....

I look at it this way . . . it's the internet.

Coming in a distant 47th place in terms of the things that MATTER in my life.

I suspect it was in jest.

If it wasn't I'd die to have that kind of free time on my hands.

The answer is:

Anal-retentive DOES have a hyphen.

Anal retentive DOES NOT have a hyphen.

Sorry, didn't mean to disrespect anyone.

We each have our little pet peeves and that's just one of mine. It sucks too because I'm horrible at knowing whether a word should be spelled with I before E or vice versa so I end up critiquing myself.

"Cheif" and "wierd" get me all the time ; )

I before E except after C.. or when it sounds like "ay" as in neighbor and weigh

While on the subject of spelling, just a quick note to be sure to utilize the spell-check when you post. Makes for searching for topics on here a bit harder if it is misspelled!

That should read "seems" not "seams".
Sorry I couldn't resist!
