Well, Price has hardly been niggardly in demonstrating his contempt for language.
I don't think that Price is demonstrating contempt for language—to do that you have to be aware of the definitions of words and their etymology, which he plainly just doesn't know—and what you do not know about you cannot be contemptible about. He only demonstrates ignorance. Those who ACCEPTED his demands for apology should have told him of his error. By not doing so, THEY demonstrated contempt for the language.
