[HUGH]

John,

Interesting website.

Having been taught in primary school that the fires of hell await the writer of bad grammar, I try not to invite these fires, but the spoken word wasn't included in the banned list. So I don't turn pale when I hear "me and him", even from my own mouth, as an occasional lapse from "he and I".

"I take reading breaks like some people take smoking or coffee breaks". This may well be correct US grammar.

According to Monty Python and the Holy Grail, it's " .... look on the bright side of life".

Hugh.
