Dear Colleagues: One more correction is needed in the sentence below: �The 501 label showed that the jeans do not tear

Dear Bruce,
I think it should be: "�The 501 label showed that the jeans did not tear easily.�

That would work, but the "not tearing" is an ongoing condition, so the present works better. Bruce |
