It did come out of Ontario. I've already got all the Canadian owners' info as well -- came with the car. Unbroken chain as far as I know back to the original selling dealer.

I really wish people would take a little time and use punctuation and grammar and spell check. It would make a world of a difference.

Sorry, I should have specified "when they write classified ads".
I just think "ewww" when I read an ad like the one you started this thread about. The guy might be a perfectly nice person but he writes like a dork.

OK, so I am now compelled to point out that this entire thread is entitled "How not to write and ad" - <snicker> I initially thought it was about math.

I use Firefox and there is a spell check plugin that works pretty good.
 
Google Chrome here. They do have spell check, but it's not a panacea... there are no misspelled words in the thread title. :devilgrin:

I've misspelled more titles than I care to admit

A Pome

I have a spelling checker
It came with my PC
It highlights for my review
Mistakes I cannot sea.

I ran this poem thru it
I'm sure your pleased to no
Its letter perfect in it's weigh
My checker told me sew.
