Anyone who "never understood what style manuals had to do with...
simple errors of grammar and usage" obviously has never looked at
Strunk & White ("The Elements of Style").  A basic premise of that
work is that the premier element of style is avoiding simple
errors of grammar and usage.  The author of the preceding article
should read it, as should everyone else.  (It should be required
of anyone posting news!)  I guess all this makes me a type 1 person.
