Your Karma is greater than 1. It's the only way to start a discussion. (I'm not there yet so I can't.)

It's not the required karma that confuses me, it's that my karma is soaring into the stratosphere!

It's probably because it's early in the life of the forum. There aren't very many posts among which to distribute the karma.

I nearly split an infinitive there. Anyway, the important thing is that you realise it's not related to your post quality. Don't think you've earned this, or anything.

*sigh*

Yeah, we'd hate for you to recklessly use incorrect grammar [bartleby.com].

And for all those non-Americans who say, "Well, sure...but what about another perspective?"

Let's see what Oxford has to say about the matter [askoxford.com].

Also, the "among which to distribute" strongly suggests that you were trying to avoid ending a sentence with a preposition. [bartleby.com]

My favorite definition for preposition?
A preposition is a word that you cannot end a sentence with.

Talk about "slow on the uptake"! It took me a whole week to figure out that your signature refers to Bloom County. I guess i'm just not very good with foreign languages any more.
