If I get a job and QA says we have to, I will make the change of course, but it might take some practice before I can be consistent with that illogical change. I would hope QA would be more interested in content than meaningless, illogical BOS changes.

That's the closest I could come to your s/l. There are blast cells, but I couldn't find that combined with anything like muco. There are platinum-based treatments, but I can't tell from your partial sentence whether it could be that.

We're not on the beach.  We're here to support and try to help one another in our quest to be good transcriptionists.  End of story.  I bet the administrator e-mailed her and told her she is not supposed to ask test questions and does not need you tattling.  It doesn't matter where I stand, I just don't believe in being a squeaky wheel to get attention and be a brown-noser!  I may be wrong, but I don't believe we make gains that way.  Take care....

It is individually owned but has been in operation for years.  Has contracts all over the US.  Is US based.  IC.  I hesitate to give the name of the company because she is reorganizing under a different name.  I looked yesterday on the internet and she does not have a website up and going yet under the new name.  Thanks for the good feedback!  I like my job and enjoy working for them.  Gives me the opportunity to work from home, be a stay-at-home mom and homeschool my two children as well!  I think I have the best situation in the world!!!!

Subject: hyphens...gait is broad-based?

I am drawing brain farts with hyphens lately.  Just looked at Dr. Grammar.  Still no help.  I know that before a noun, two or more adjectives are hyphenated, as in broad-based gait.  But what about gait is broad-based. ? Are there new rules on hyphenation? Do we always hyphenate heel-to-shin and the like?
