Grammar Bitch is rubbing off; this is good



Grammar Bitch is tickled pink to see that her crusade is gaining ground and spreading throughout the Midwest. According to the Wichita Eagle, a student in Kansas was taking a state writing test and following the advice of his teachers: read each line, review every question, make sure you understand what's being asked. This eagle-eyed student was doing just that when he noticed a glaring error. The word "emission" -- as in "the emission of greenhouse gases" -- was spelled "omission."

Grammar Bitch says BRAVO to student Geoffrey Stanford - he caught an error that had slipped by who knows how many mucky-mucks with the Kansas State Board of Education.

Damn spell-check!
