Although your example seems and is extreme, it is about time logic was
applied to the english language.

Each and every generation must wade though all these english rules and
"special cases."

About time changes where implemented to speed them on their way ...

No, and definitely NOT "original." The original has been cribbed by
dozens, rewritten for a specific subject, and tossed out as "new"
or "news" for years. Sigh...given some snazzy graphics this could
have been a "news" item for the "Onion." :-(

Nonsense, JS, EVERY human language has its peculiarities, rules,
and convoluted forms. We can say, with some certainty, that:

I believe every math/tech/logic student who has been forced to take
untold english classes and study the insignificant "rules of english"
has argued the insanity and illogic of english, well, at least those
with a respectable IQ have ... the waste of time learning phone instead
of phone, pneumonia instead of neumonia, etc ... etc ... is simply mind
numbing!

Heck. Mark has been writing like that for decades. He even said,
"I realy don't write that badly I do write in ore european mode [sic]"



So, what you call laziness, Mark calls economy of effort. Maybe he is simply
ahead of his time.



Or stupid.

language.The English language won by one vote.And I am glad it did.

"In other words, Bridge says interest in HD radio is decreasing even

well-intended warnings about HD's "premature death" seem to be rearing
their ugly heads almost two years later."
