I agree with him--and I also share your interest in your early 19th C grammar book! (That's the kind of thing that Tom loves to pick up and think about too.)<br /><br />I left a comment on your previous post, which I really regret missing last week b/c I would have loved to have been in a conversation with the rest of you.
