That is cool. I'm going to share that with some students of English. They should really like that (and maybe the'll sop asking me grammar questions that I can't answer.)

That reminds me of the sentence diagramming we were taught in junior high school English classes.

This is useful.
As an extreme dyslexic I feel very lucky to live in an age of technology which makes communication much easier.  Sometimes I am amazed that I can make a living tapping things into a keyboard.  My friend, who is a cancer survivor, once said to me, "If we were born 100 years earlier I'd be dead and you'd be digging my grave".

>"If we were born 100 years earlier I'd be dead and you'd be digging my grave".

Similarly, I keep a mental note of how many friends have been saved by modern medicine. Appendectomies, emergency room trips, trauma, etc... 100 years ago, I wouldn't have many friends left.
