Thanks! At my age I think I need a remedial English class.

I have seen this particular error becoming common. When an error, even as a typo, occurs on FR, it is often taken up as some sort of trendy thing that it is cool to copy. Either that or the familiarity with grammar and spelling is so woeful that people see an error and think, oh, that’s how to say it! The problem is that grammar has not been taught in the public schools for several generations. The existence of grammar rules is deemed offensive to the primary Democrat voting base and had to end. Unfortunately most people still don’t think enough of their children to homeschool.
