p> YES, WE HAVE NO BAN'ANA'S TODAY br> Re: Kelly Jane Torrance's Jots and Tittles : /p> p>Ms. Torrance is absolutely correct in her analysis of grammar and today's young students. I teach at a community college, and walked by the sign "Future Teacher's Of America" for one day before I could stand it no longer. The poor young things had no idea why I was upset with their sign! br> -- Mary Myers br> Fort Myers, Florida /p> p> How utterly refreshing to read Ms. Torrance commenting on the fact that she is a "grammar nazi." Well, so am I. She snorts at an ad listing banana's for sale. I can go her one better. I have actually seen bananas for sale like this: bana'na's for sale. Just today, when buying two roast beef sandwiches at Arby's, there was a professionally written sign on the wall: complimentary salad dressing. My husband wondered if the salad dressing was going to pay a compliment to the salad. I'm a little tired at the moment, so if someone finds a grammatical mistake, I apologize. I just felt that I had to write. Ms. Torrance made my day! br> -- Peggy DeLong br> West Union, Ohio
