Description Adam Weinberger 2005-08-13 18:13:41 UTC
You cannot take two sentences and combine them by sticking a comma between them; that is *always* 
a grammar error.

#: Best/BestTray.cs:150                                                                                                                                                
msgid ""                                                                                                                                                               
"You're about to close the search tray. The search tray is automatically "                                                                                             
"started, do you want to disable it?"


The comma should be replaced with a period, and "Do" should be capitalized. Also, please consider 
replacing the contraction with "You are".

Thanks. Changed the wording slightly and included your suggestions.
