    K.I.S.S = Keep it Simple, Silly... NOT = Keep it Silly, Simple... and btw, you seem to have really adhered to the KISS principal, unfortunately YOUR definition of KISS! Your presentation’s a real waste of time!

    Hi, I learned a lot from your presentation. However, I edited some of it; the grammar and spelling. I hope you don’t mind. Thanks!

    Thank you, Ham! I’m in school and this term we’re studying Microsoft Office 2007, including Power Point. I learned some good pointers from you! Next time, get your grammar checked, though.
