to me, grammar is not a set of rules, rather, the order of words which make the most sense… sometimes I think the way something is said colloquially is more sensible then the rule found in the books…

How about we fire up the old Segway and find a nice quiet field to do long division in?

I mean, a nice quiet field in which to do long division. - Morts son in family guy… I forget his name…

I think both make sense, and cover all details of the thought and in certain occasions, I may deliberately choose one or the other…

I don’t expect it to be perfect either, but people should at least make an effort to make it understandable to at least a 5th grader. Take some time to proof read yer schtuff… :wink:
