Cool! You're almost kinda like a celebrity. (I enjoyed the article. Read the whole thing in a single setting, too!)
I don't even know how to use Spell-Check, so I'm FORCED to... "Look it up, Stephen!!!" And I'm sure I get it etched into my mind that way... eventually.
When I was very young, I was an AWFUL speller. But I eventually became so addicted to reading that over time I developed into a... semi-awful speller.
I jest. Actually, I'm now a fairly decent speller. It's spilling that's a problem for me now (I can't hold my liquor).
I can still remember when I was very young, the words "there", "their", and "they're" gave me terrible FITS. Then one day - BINGO! - it all made sense. I guess theirs plenty to be said for reading!
You're famous! And that is SUCH a gorgeous photo of you in the article! (Yes, I read it, but having recently had to do author pics, I'm all about the photos right now.)
you're now officially famous. this earns you the right to charge heavy sums for pics like the two here of your gorgeous self, autograph those suckers and spread them to all your fans, we're all buying this stock
Congratulations! All my co-workers know that orthography and proofreading are my super powers, so I appreciate all who crusade for better communication. I like your approach, too, starting with the basics and not assuming someone knows a compound adjective from a transitive verb. Enjoyed the article!
Loved the article in the Register, which brought me here. All I can say is dang, you funny! I look forward to more posts and maybe an old dog like me can learn a grammar trick or two. Lord knows I can use all the help I can get.
Congratulations, Jenny. That was awesome. I apologize for missing this when it came out. My blog post tomorrow morning will explain where I have been hiding. Can't wait to wash that car. ;)

As one of the most egregious and annoying grammatical errors, I try to avoid the dangling participle.
Congratulations! ^_^
