Bert,
I find it extremely intriguing but not surprising your interest in the language. I see the ability you have with diagnosing and walking folks through their software and hardware issues not unlike your ability to dissect, parse and instruct the language. I have heard it said that often times the really great musicians are often times mathematically gifted as well, and I think speaking/writing is a variant form of music, if you think of it that way. My ex-father in law saw my struggles with language and offered the advice to read, read, read, and suggested reading the great authors is the best way to learn to speak the language. I think most folks can appreciate wonderful music or literature, but to parse, dissect and instruct is a rare gift, whether it is computer stuff or the Anglish language.
This is not meant to be critical, just observational, and you are in great company because even though I am addressing you it could be a number of AC users that help me (and others) out on a daily basis.
