Don, "irregardless" is not a word. You really do need to search for a
remedial course in your area.

I don't not see a problem with it.
Usage Note: Irregardless is a word that many mistakenly believe to be
correct usage in formal style, when in fact it is used chiefly in
nonstandard speech or casual writing. Coined in the United States in the
early 20th century, it has met with a blizzard of condemnation for being
an improper yoking of irrespective and regardless and for the logical
absurdity of combining the negative ir- prefix and -less suffix in a
single term. Although one might reasonably argue that it is no different
from words with redundant affixes like debone and unravel, it has been
considered a blunder for decades and will probably continue to be so.


I used "irregardless" for years, I think mainly because my father used to
say it all the time.
I was finally politely told it was improper usage by a guy I worked for
years ago. Still took me quite a while to get out of the habit.

snip all the crap

Sorry guys, I am tuning up my killfile after a software upgrade and I
needed a quick way of scoring threads for Harry bashers and supporters.

Thank you for donating your 'handles' to the project, I just need to do
a little googling to assign suitable weights to your activity in each
thread and I can get back to reading the remaining percentage of boating
posts without the turds floating on the top and the stagnant muck at the
bottom :-)

Hey Don!

Do you ever do any ice fishing up there in Halifax bay. Looks like it would
be a good place for it.
