Been reading Sluggy since forever. Basically I got here since the recent strips very much made me want to post to the typo thread. As a native German speaker, Early Modern English grammar may be quite more natural to me than to native Modern English speakers and, well, the wild juggling of cases and declensions really make me wince. I've already seen a correction post, but in the thicket of problems it is wading through, there still are a few oversights.

So I hope to be able to contribute to make the print versions more palatable to old grammar nazis...

Oddly enough, English doesn't have any declensions. It's the one form of linguistic insanity we've managed to decline. Though I suspect it was hard for us to do, since we stole everything else from Latin.

Anyway, welcome aboard. Grab a drink and have a seat; the floor show will be starting soon. I thing today is going to be the parquet review; but we'll find out when the curtains rise.
