Thread Name: BS: Pedants be damned
Subject: RE: BS: Pedants be damned
Bitching at BILL? He of the most gentle perdantic sort of nature? Ah well... good thing I have 2-3 very full days ahead and will likely lose track. Pedantry is often unrewarding. However, it can be fun! I got much of my attitude from this delightful tome.

(yup... left off one capital- I often do in parentheses. I said you'd find some teeny flaws. And I never do even attempt to do classical, formal ellipsis. Them dots is just how I think. I even do that when using pen & paper. But I only asserted that *I* was a proud pedant, and insinuated that others were... (oops, dots again) not that other pedants were necessarily proud.)
