Never try to correct grammar and usage on this board. It will be an endless (and fruitless) effort!You'll find yourself correcting endless misplaced and misused apostrophes and other sins. (sarc/off)
LOL. As a general rule, I don't play spelling/grammar cop unless the other poster is trying to lord their intellectual/academic credentials, making statements about the intelligence of others or trumpeting their ability to clearly and effectively communicate. Once they've introduced those things as part of the discourse, I consider them fair game :-)
Nitpicking. People on the Internet usually accept informal writings. If people want to play this game, we can play.
Yes, I know you are right. I am just trying to shine one tiny ray of light into the darkness. I tried for years to eliminate the irritating redundancy "Each and every ... ". I was told that it was said to add emphasis. Well, duh! All redundancies are to either add emphasis or because the speaker is insecure in his own knowledge or of the knowledge of the listener. It is still redundant, just like, "I raised it up." Even Rush still says, Each and every.
Embarrassingly, I have even made grammatical mistakes while correcting someone else's. I should know better but obviously, I don't.
