When that day comes, perhaps we could include "there" (a place), "their" (possessive) and "they're" (contraction of "they are"); as well as "it's" (contraction of "it is"), and "its" (possessive). Then there's "then", which refers to time, and "than", which is a comparative (more proper than "then" in a comparison).... So much grammar, so little time.... English has its difficulties, it's true. Respectfully, Sting (late of the language Police), whose [not "who's"] substantive posts he hopes are found to outnumber his carping, quibbling, caviling ones. **************Feeling the pinch at the grocery store?
