[derail]The OP reminded me of a poster I wish I had bought. It was a diagrammed sentence by the greatest French novelist, Marcel Proust. Proust tended toward verrrry long sentences.

So then I wondered, what exactly was the longest Proust sentence? Voilà.[/derail]

Back on track, I love grammar.

I would imagine in your case you had better have a great affinity for grammar, let something go into print incorrectly. (My personal peeve with printed matter)

And SCA, we have the same type of spelling lists here too. It saves me from having to correct the Your, and you're, which frankly I love.
My son also has a list he has to keep in his notebook of commonly misused, or spelled words.
