Bah, pointless outdated grammar 'rules' that do little to aid clarity but do cause confusion in writers that should be better served by ignoring them.

(my next post may or may not be in Cameron's attack on the Spelling Society, but that's linked to a poll I need to finish research on).

I did 17thC for my A level (hence my initial interest in 1688), but did the latter for my Access course, both are of interest.
