Care to explain how?

I just don't see your line of thought, so it would be a good idea to point out the errors as you see them instead of attempting to trash it. Glen Poole is moderator for Norm-UK, and I have no idea if he has anger issues or drives a lorry.

Yeah, there were unacceptable grammar issues there, granted.

Thing is, he probably sees the moral issue of circumcision as a no-brainer, and that small errors won't harm the cause. Perhaps he has little time on his hands to make sure every letter he writes or article he blogs, are 100% perfect. I think you were a little unfair about him (unless you know him personally), as I would rather see petitions like that than no petitions at all. I agree he could have done a better job, but in no way does it make it worthless.

Worked for me. Maybe you have a pop-up blocking or other internet security incompatibility.
