IronScheme - 1.0 alpha 4a out now (29 May 2008)Pah. The site's buggy. It doesn't let you enter a complete word before it starts jumping the cursor around. I fucking hate sites that don't manage the focus properly, or clear edit fields that you've already entered stuff into.

IronScheme - 1.0 alpha 4a out now (29 May 2008)That's meta-data, not worth knowing. On the other hand, my kid used to watch "Between the Lions", and they had a song called "Ten Little Words", which I assume are the ten most common. After hearing it for the ump-teenth time I wrote them down: A The Is That You Of In And It To

Fold With Us![^]I found that very annoying, too. I also question the approach to determining how well someone knows their English based on the system they did.

I agree. I don't think it was a very accurate approach at determining how good a person's English skills are.
