grammar
Why is it that we computer people abuse the English language so
miserably?  Daily, I observe atrocious grammmar and perverse spelling
not only in work by students, but also in commercial documents, in
memos from my superiors, and in submissions to this network.  Where does
the fault lie?

I can only hope that the situation improves before it gets worse.  Am I
the last of the die-hard traditionalists or are there others who
have similar strong feelings?
