Diary of a report writer and his big break into bad business

Re: Many Years Ago...

My usual solution was to deliberately insert a split infinitive into my text (see what I did there?)

Then we'd bat it to-and-fro a few times, with me giving chapter and verse on "The King's English" by Fowler and why English-English permits if not exactly encourages this grammatical construct.

They soon give up.
