For Dr. Bob - Annoying grammar note

Posted by ST on February 7, 2002, at 20:48:58

Hi Dr. Bob,

I'm such a pain in the ass when it comes to grammar and spelling...bear with me. I couldn't help but notice your opening sentence on the Psycho-Babble-Book-Club Board:

"This is a message board to discuss books at."

Winston Churchill, according to folklore, was once reprimanded for ending a sentence with a preposition. He responded: "This is the sort of thing up with which I will not put."

So...do with this as you will!

I know, I know, it was late, and I couldn't come up with anything else... But I've changed it now. Better? :-)
