I may be wrong, but that has never stopped me before.
Chris, I think you are inferring that 1***
as indicated means "Never excuse the use of bad English"

I agree with Chris and don't wish to criticize _anyone_, simply
agree and enlighten.

If I misunderstand your understanding, please correct me. The only thing
I hate worse than not being right, is being left(behind). ;)
