For a start I am unimpressed by self-appointed guardians of the language (why guard language anyway? why not encourage its free-spirited development?) whistling forth a zombie-squad of sabre-toothed pinheads to do their bidding. There are several things that disturb me about the Doctor's poxy proffering. ![]() I also happen to think it's a tool worth having in the box in terms of English morphology.
