that navel is spelt with an "al", for one thing,

that it's i before e, except after c

and that a plural possessive takes an apostrophe after the s for another.

All that aside, I was taught, among other things, how to teach children to reason, which is not what you are doing. I explained this in my previous posting it and doubt that you will be listening if I repeat it. Suffice it to say that the quantum leaps you make in your reasoning are of a kind I would want to discourage in children because I believe they are sloppy, prejudiced and encourage children to draw irrational conclusions.
