Common Errors (grammatical)
Common errors you see people make in posts, articles, emails, or other written docs.
Maybe we will see our own mistakes and learn from it. I have a guy who emails me when he catches gramatical mistakes in my commentary. That could be a fulltime job for him.  No names please.
