Default Re: It's Sumter NOT Sumpter

My mother was an english major in college, so she was forever correcting us if we made any error in our writing or speaking. It used to bug the crap out of me. And to this day it continues to bug the crap out of me, because if someone makes an error I am mentally correcting it in my head. I make a conscious effort to quell my thoughts, but the errors still bug me somehow. I have never turned into my mother (regardless of what my husband says) and corrected others, but I continue to do so in my own head.
