Coi Robin,
In a fit of idle interest & work-avoidance I was browsing through the JFGI mail archive, & notice that your current "It Appears That You Are Not One Of Them" appears to be a change made in response to complaints about split infinitives in an earlier version like "You appear to not be one of them". There's nowt wrong with the current version, but nevertheless it strikes me that rather than changing the text to avoid the split infinitive, it would be better to leave the text unchanged and instead direct the complainant to fuckoffyourepulsiveignoramus.com or some such means of indicating to anti-split-infinitive complainers what a monstrous maleducated blight they, the anti-split-infinitive complainers, are on intelligent society.
co'o mi'e And
