In order, the best I can find them:

There is no subject. One could argue it's an understood "I am", but I say no.
The next error is one of capitalization. The first word of the sentence should be capitalized.
The next error is incorrect pronoun usage. The word “yourâ€

Good job Garr.

You missed my favorite though.

Or..my grammer might be wrong as well... Think in the tenses.

btw. This message does not count. I'm sure it's full of errors too but I am to tired to care.

Huh? Are you sure it's the same 'People's History of the US' that I read? Because I sure didn't see that in there. Howard Zinn's book, right?

There was this cool chapter about Gatekeepers that I referenced in my above post, if we're talking about the same book. Howard Zinn, the History guy, right? He said that most EFFECTIVE social change comes from the gatekeepers. Others have risen up with limited success. This was that Zinn guy that I saw at Manchester, right? - 'cause I think I use to use his book extensively in my teaching at my old skool, if we're talking about the same Howard Zinn. ;-)
