I've seen it written as Is.  Also Isle as another poster mentioned.  I don't think it is usual to abreviate it.

When you first delete a file, it does still exist on your hard drive. However, the space that the file took up on the drive is now free to be reused by other files. This does mean that a new file can overwrite the old file, making it difficult to read or retrieve. However, even when a file has been written over, it is still possible to retrieve the underlying data. I have read that in some cases, experts with advanced tools can retrieve files that have been overwritten five or six times. There are programs out there that make sure data is really deleted by overwriting a file up to a hundred times with random data. This is probably overkill, but I'm sure it's effective. In most cases for normal people, such extreme measures should not be necessary.

I agree! My theory is that if you put it down in writing, it is a reflection of who you are.  If you are careless about grammar and punctuation, then maybe you are a carless person too.  Attention to detail really makes a difference.\n\nFurthermore, consistant mis-spellings and incorrect usage might be an indicator of someone's work ethics.

Anything is possible.  We're talking about something that happened a long time ago.  The only thing we had left is what someone wrote down.  At some point in time anyone could delete/add anything.

It writes in the next available spot. By the time you access the internet, something has probably already been overwritten in that spot

I haven't been able to find it in the cliche or phrase dictionaries.  I've seen it in books and usually it meant "searched exhaustively."\nAn example is "The detective really covered the waterfront, and has no further clues to pursue."

It probably means something was ordered by check over the phone.  You may have called in a bill or something like that.

When you originate a written work, it's natural to skip over things, believing you couldn't have made a mistake here, there, etc.\n\nWhen you're looking at someone else's work, it's not familiar to you.  It's natural to look at every word and phrase with scrutiny.  Not so with your own work.

What is this referring to? Can you post a clarification?

I think what that means, if I am not wrong, is water that is soluble and can mix with ink. Most pens have this feature, or should i say ink pens. They are not resistant to water so if there is water on paper, if you try writing over it, the ink would still make a mark on the paper instead of being repelled some where or not even made a mark. \n\nIf what I say above is correct then hop down to any stationary shop to grab some ink pens to see how it works.

It means it goes nowhere.  It used to, but the page is gone or being worked on.

whelm and overwhelm actually means the same thing.  \n\nThe word Whelm comes from the Middle English word "whelmen" to overturn, probably alteration (influenced by helmen, to cover), and of whelven from Old English -hwelfan(as in hwelfan, to cover over).
