yes it is a great article
Good posting on your part. However, the contents are so important, more people need the opportunity to read them.

See, it’s already affecting our grammar, which is getting very badder by the minute.
LOL, really
Thanks for sharing.
Reminds me of the motto of the legendary Texas Rangers: "No man in the wrong can stand up against a man in the right who keeps on comin'."
I would change the first "man" to "government" in this case.

It shore do be doin’ dat don’t it?
I feel cursed, I am able at will to lapse into the dialect I learned as a youth complete with “ain’t no such of a thang”, etc. and it seems somehow funny and reassuring at the same time. On the other hand the kind of errors that are so common in current usage set my teeth on edge. Is anyone left who understands proper usage? It is one thing to make errors in conversation but to write them out is quite another. Every passing day it seems that fewer and fewer of those who post on FR make an effort to proofread and some of those who do proofread don’t understand the language in the first place.
I ain’t perfec but I shore do try, I wish some o’ da rest uv um ud make a effort sometime.
If congressmen know they will have to sign up for the same program as us it will never pass.
Rather specious reasoning. Strange that with 48 hours you selected the same 2007 article and posted the same excerpt from it! I guess I should send all my posts to you first so you can determine if the contents are “important” enough for you to duplicate. By all means, never click the search button.

You posted the same excerpt as I did? That is odd.
