Re: oh yea..
So by attempting to be a language elitist to make a point the point merely reinforced that the person trying to make a point was out of touch with how most people use language. By being patronizing you lose the battle by disengaging the audience.
Again, disagree. Many places you would be correct; but this is The Reg - an IT publication. IT tends to attract the type of people who dot 'i's and cross 't's and you will find that grammar nazis are fairly thick on the ground around these parts....there's even a dedicated forum icon for it.
