It seems that you've no idea of how to use (sic).
The incorrect use of "their" for "they're" to which you responded
should have been written:
And their (sic) not likely to know any more English grammar than
you do.
sic means "intentionally written as shown (incorrectly)." This usage
would not only show your knowledge of grammar but your subtlety with
it ;-0)
But who really cares, eh? Did anyone here NOT understand that the
poster meant "they're" ???
