Lin et al.:
I would buy this book if I was working (again) in one of those environments
where I was hired as the language expert and then I was challenged every
time I removed the apostrophe from "turn the radio onto it's side". It'd
scare 'em real good.
For the topside price of $55 I expect it to be good and heavy, so I can also
drop it on their feet with good effect.
At that price I don't think I would buy it for my personal shelf, though.
It scares _me_! Looks like somebody had 'way too many Saturday nights with
nothing better to do, and too many years of Classical Latin.
