Re: I think I may have family involved

Fair enough, but the usage is still commonplace.

As opposed to the post that I was commenting on. Did he mean the parent of his parent, or one of his parents that was better than the other?

Think of it in terms of mine being a (possible) syntax error which the compiler would pick up and his which was valid code but referring to the wrong object, possibly causing an airliner to fall out of the sky killing all the passengers.
