Hi all,

Tom Green asks:
<<In the sentence, 'Insure the shifting fingers are oriented...' which
would you use? "Insure" or "Ensure">>

Ensure. Ensure is equivalent to "make certain that", whereas insure
would suggest that you want the user to take out a policy on the
shifting fingers.

HTH,
Claudia
