What would be worse than using the possessive "your" in place of the congregated you are "you're”? Why it would have to be using you're as a possessive of course!
I guess “you are logic is flawless” makes great sense to some. It’s whatever floats your boat with the kids these days…
Thanks for the tip! I'll remember that next time on "LetsSpell.com".

Um the only time I used your in my last post was as a possessive. Show me please where I made this mistake, because in honesty I pride myself on using your/you're right. It's one of the few grammatical things I can do correctly.

Compare this to how American milers of the same era fared at the Olympics when favoured: Dyrol Burleson (1960, 64): Choked, got 5th place at best. Jim Ryun (1968, 72, world-record holder, prohibitive favorite): Beaten into the ground, tripped in the heats. Steve Scott (1984, in front of a home crowd): Bizarre tactics, placed 5th. It's too early to give word on Alan Webb but, as evidenced by last year's WC, he doesn't quite have it all worked out yet.
Steve Scott was not favored to win in '84. Cram was the favorite. The reason for his "bizarre" front running tactics owed to the fact that Cram outsprinted him in the world championships the previous summer and Scott had no confidence in beating Cram in a kick.
