Don't worry about it too much Bill. Due to the current policy of rewriting history, language can't be far behind. Just think, we might be the last generation of Americans who remember history, how to spell, + the difference between an adverb + an adjective. Actually Bill, Do worry. I do.

Yes, me too. But, after reading that article, I seriously doubt that are but a handful of the up and coming generation that can even understand or digest it.
