It's the people with 144 cans of Snappy Tom, five eight-packs of toilet paper or 20 litres of milk that I wonder about -- it can't be anything as simple as supermarket specials, can it? (Especially not the milk.)<BR/><BR/>It is a fascinating game even here in Adders without the grog. But I can see that alcohol adds a special spice.<BR/><BR/>Grammar Person -- I sympathise, I really do, but 'less' is what all the signs in all the aisles say, after all. It's all very well knowing it should be 'fewer', but why didn't you explain why? <BR/><BR/>*AHEM* <BR/><BR/>Individual items are 'fewer', whereas an undifferentiated mass of stuff is 'less'. (The opposite in both cases is 'more' which is probably what causes the confusion.) So you would buy less Snappy Tom, but fewer cans of Snappy Tom.<BR/><BR/>Don't clap, just throw money.Kerryn Goldsworthyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11270814460793882309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18334692.post-1144122576308919622006-04-04T13:49:00.000+10:002006-04-04T13:49:00.000+10:008 items or FEWER goddamnit!8 items or FEWER goddamnit!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
