Evening all

[Mr K]

You may be stunned to know you have a new regional moderator...Me.

So if you have any queries, criticisms or abuse to proportion...please send it to someone else.

 

[Buz]

I dunno, this site has just gone down hill since the upgrade


Good luck in your new venture

I think you mean "apportion", dear but even then it's not quite semantically correct. It wouldn't be fair to send this to anyone else, now would it....?

This will not be a grammaticly correct democracy.

I'd be happy with a 'Benevolent Dictatorship'.

We'd not got past semantic mistakes and you're leaping ahead to grammar. Remind me, how do you eat an elephant...?

Aren't you jumping ahead to eating an elephant, remind me, how do you cook an elephant?

Ahh yes, "pedant". A term used as a defence mechanism by people who are incapable of precision in their use of language.

'A pedant is a person who is excessively concerned with formalism and precision, or who makes an ostentatious and arrogant show of learning'

You need to quote your source and then consider the context in which that definition was established while recognising that "excessively concerned" is only someone's subjective opinion.
