alright ill bite, Im a blue collar worker who likes to work ball in his spare time, So to make you feel superior what does (sic) mean?

Literally, the Latin word Sic is translated as "thus." However, it is often inserted in parenthesis (sic),
to call attention to the fact that some inaccuracy, mispelling or the like has been literally copied. When one reproduces the writings of another, he will often place (sic) after a such a mistake to indicate that the mistake was made in the original writing.

My question, I guess wasn't clear enough. You state the(sic) you will call by the book. [/B][/QUOTE]
