[lit-ideas] Re: Anymore

--- Now this below is hateful, but what are  you gonna do?! D. Ritchie notes 
that NYT uses 'anymore' in _reporting  working-class speech. 

From today's World Wide Words:

"Dennis  Ginley found another such error in the corrections column of 
the Oregonian,  Portland, on 24 February: "The Oregonian strives to 
be accurate, fair and  complete in it's coverage, and corrects 
significant errors of fact." But not  so much concerned with errors 
of punctuation."

-- and grammar -- I'd  add.

OTOH R. Paul is right in having whotsit Zeno Vendler down a peg or  two -- 
with his use of "*". 

Cheers,

J. L.  Speranza
