If we obsessively change all instances of the syllable 'man' to 'person', we have problems with a person called Guy Chapman. Do we call him Person Personperson?

This made me laugh really quite a lot.

The web page in question is http://baptism.co.nz/gram16.html, and he's written other articles on grammar. Being a fully paid up member of the grammar fascists, and a professional editor and proof reader, I enjoyed these anyway. But it was Person Personperson that made me laugh.

Yay! Like the style, hate the green title bar. Ten minutes with style overrides, and the green title bar is no more. The orange links have gone, too :-)
