For those who can take one more message on proper English...

Anyone catch the Wizard of Id cartoon, yesterday, Feb. 12?

The prisoner says to the jailer: "I have a question that keeps driving
me crazy."

Jailer replies: "What is it?"

Prisoner says: "Why is their no warning label on a shotgun?"

Moral:
'Tis better to practice good English in everyday writing than to fall
into sloppy habits and embarass oneself in print for an audience of millions.
(And if you don't see the error, get thee to a remedial English class.)
