Debate Over Language Use

Hi, folks. An article well worth reading in today's edition of the NYTimes: http://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/04/15/arguing-about-language/?hp. The writer speaks of traditionalists and revisionists, and claims both are correct, albeit in different ways. I think, in the Writing Center, we are smack dab in the middle of this discussion each day as we work with writers. (And it's really neat to use the phrase "smack dab.")
