And before anyone picks it up - Yes I know I missed a whole word out of my previous post.
‘to’
In case you haven’t run into it yet, Lobsang, you’re the latest victim of what we call “Gaudere’s Law” – based on her observation that every post that sets out to discuss good language use or spelling will contain a language use or spelling error. 
Argle-bargle morble whoosh? Ffluger fribble golorful frooble.
“I have a dream that the SDMB little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the excuse of their spelling, but by the character of their content.”
Humble apologies to Martin Luther King, Jr.
Jackmann, is that a lowercase Roman Numeral 2 at the end of your name? 
Oh, damn… Is that the mathematical constant e at the end of mine?!!

Actually, that expression is constantly misinterpreted, because it’s based on a nearly-defunct meaning of the word ‘proves’. Read it as ‘the [apparent] exception that tests the rule’ but doesn’t break it to understand it’s true meaning.
Shane! Come back!!
I am well aware of the “Gaudre’s Law” Rule.
She sure is powerful. The post in question was copied into MS-Word in order to check its spelling/grammar. (a very rare thing for me to do) It failed to identify the missing ‘it’.
Or the correct spelling of Gaudere.

I you’re going to talk nonsense, at least talk proper nonsense. 
And Gaudere gets me too. hooptiously.

I didn’t have my copy handy. I had to rely on Google. Most humble apologies.
ItShut up, BrightEyes.
No need for you to apologise Smeghead. You correctly quoted from the book. I was pedantically pointing out differences between the book and the original radio script.
This is the pit. I was hoping for a “f*** o**” response and an ensuing debate about which version of the nonsense verse was “correct”.
You proved to be the greater gentleman, Smeghead. I owe you my apologies instead.
The only thing worse than a geek is a pedantic geek. So there, too.
