Let me make one little adjustment... '1000 Ways to Abuse The English Language'! And no, I'm not talking about anyone who writes English as a second language. I'm talking about chatspeak and netspeak and all those other modern ways to rend tears in the English language. But more seriously, I would use that title. More people use this forum wrongly than they do correctly. They sacrifice discussion and thoughtful commentary and spout off pithy little nonsensical replies in the hopes of earning a few more cents. They post inane discussions with no substance, don't bother to explain themselves, and essentially just wh*re out words for a few pennies.

That brings to mind vicious word Vandals, roaming the pages and looking for sentences to ravage and plunder.

I have that in my mind as well. You just expressed it more eloquently. lol It sparked another idea "The rape and pillage of the English language for money"

Well said friend. I agree with you wholeheartedly. A lot of the drivel that passes through this forum is nauseating.

That's what I mean really. Misuse rather than use. I just want to be a little more polite. hahaha

Humm... interesting question. Upon careful reflection, I've decided the best title for such a book would be: myLot: Money, Madness, and Camaraderie A Dynamic Global Landscape
