Yeah, MACS....frank...the rest of you sticklers....

I like grammar more than the average person...though maybe not as much as some of you...but I'm about done trying keep some things straight...so lets just call these equal:

further/farther----nobody seems to care any more, and those that do are often wrong anyway

anyway/ anyways....because I still say anyways

and even toward/towards...towards is so ubiquitous now, that it is never going away

I'm not budging on accept/except...or affect/effect...those ARE crucial to meaning

well, you're spot on with your assessment that nobody seems to care ... one of the popular game shows on TV has a host whose pronunciation is so bad, losing contestants are frequently given another appearance because they didn't have a clue what the hell the host was saying ... even in his intro, he tells viewers "we've got another good 'un fer ya ... everybody's here tryin' to win theyself a lotta cayesh" ..

small wonder so many are often wrong anyways ...

Proper grammar is the difference between knowing your sh*t and knowing you're sh*t.
