A comma after "2006" is all I can see that it needs. |

Thank you. That's what I thought. - Cathie Baker 3/13/2011 9:30:29 AM | FlagI agree with Lynn. Comma after 2006. - msm1954 3/16/2011 6:25:07 AM | Flag |

for clarification: the real question is: Was that program still being operated?" the first part tells "when" and is a clause out of order and requires a comma to set it off. the correctly ordered question would be: "Was that program still being operated when you left in 2006?" --and no comma would be required. |
