Thanks in advance!

Hi,

'Must' 'Can' 'May' are so called defective verbs, which means that there is no infinitive form. In that case you say: Must I? Can I? and May I?

Hey, it's you again... I think last time I left you a pretty clear message about your arrogance. So, please next time I need some help I expect not to find your nasty comments in one of my posts. Is it clear? or Do you need a picture of it?

Beat it!

Pursuant to your request I will try to remember not to answer any more of your questions.
