@tanguatlay,
There should be a space after 10.

10 am

@tanguatlay,
Hi Sturgis,
I would like to clarify.

Can "am" be used with "morning" in my first post? To me, "am" is redundant.

One can use 10 am in the morning, but wither the "am" or "in the morning" is superfluous. Writing 10 am means in the morning, so adding that is unnecessary.

@tanguatlay,
Although am and morning are redundant, you need the "this" to indicate the day.

How about:

The traffic accident happened at about ten this morning.

I think the system at ASK went crazy. Why are there so many identical posts from me?

@tanguatlay,
Just a system glitch (minor bug).
