Thread Name: How the words change
Subject: RE: How the words change
Nobody's overlooking that - at least, I'm not. I certainly have no desire that the line be altered. Some of us are just stuffed shirts who get our kicks by rattling on about questions of grammar and usage.

Although, to be sure, if you are one of said stuffed shirts, that line is likely not to have quite the required amount of punch, because one part of your brain will be doing a quick grammatical run-through as the next line goes by.
