Mr. Carrillo: There's a little tab you can use to extend the discussion forum so we can see more than three threads. Would you, pretty please? It should say Edit.

thank you sophie for starting something here, it was starting to look more like a badge than a discussion group.

I'm no longer really a grammar maven (seriously, ask anyone in GMAT Prep!). But I do occasionally aspire to be, and having old Bill's visage looking out at me reminds me of the delight I had as a high school student awaiting his On Language column each Sunday.

Thanks. I think Albuquerque's just a little bit better now that this group exists.
