Your right. Re-reading Keilan's post, I dont think it was meant as rude.
It goes to show that more than just words are involved in communication. OP: You should definetly take up the offer! 1 person has voted this message useful | |

It seems my little joke was more ambiguous than expected.
His use of maybe was perfectly grammatical. My response was meant to be very tongue in cheek, and what I was trying to communicate is "That sounds like an amazing opportunity, and I think you should go for it". My apologies for the confusion, I would blame the difficulty of talking via text, but I get this in real life as well. :) I tend to deliver my jokes with a straight face, but I'll make an effort to throw in a smiley or a "haha" here and there. 2 persons have voted this message useful | |

No offense taken, I busted out laughing being corrected on my own post!
Funny thing, today at work they sat in my section on purpose, I will definitely take them up on their offer! 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Wow you're so lucky...Around here, people can barely speak English well, (deep South) yet here you are speaking to two polyglot professors.
