The writer tells us the red Corolla was driven by two people. Are there no competent editors at all now?
NOPE!
We are suffering under the first full set of graduates from the latter day publi education system (all the way through college/univesity degrees) wherein all the B$ courses have displace all the basic, important stuff.
As far back as late 70’s, when our kids were in elementary school, the handout they brought home from the Irvine,CA schools were filled with grammar and spelling errors. (Irvine being a city one paid a hefty premium to live in because of the supposedly “best schools in the country.)
Around the same time, a buddy’s high school teacher wife threatened to divorce him if he continued grading their son’s handouts and returning them to the principal of his elementary svhool.
S, NOW those kids are in their late thirties, early forties and are assuming the positions of influence throughout our society.
As a result we have grammar and spelling and word usage travesties occurring daily EVERYWHERE.
I recently saw a a major, full color Veterinary magazine with “site” instead of “sight” used on the COVER!
The dumbing down continues unchecked ..............
Nope. Just in-office 'reporters' who depend on SPELL-CHECKERS.
