You HAD to say 'diagram sentences'. At 7 am on a Saturday (or any day), that's the last thang I kneaded to reed. I hated diagrammaring sentances. But I still got an 'A' in that Engrish crass.And, know, we don't need two name names. PictureGuy nose whom he be. I tried to learn him a couple years ago, but it didn't stick.
IF
THEN (not THAN)
ELSE
ENDIF:)
P.S.: Way back in 1982 or '83, I was driving my rental car along a Houston highway. Some guy didn't like hearing the distant traffic noise in his back yard, and wanted to build a fence to block it. Well, when I arrived at the residence, it was clear that a fence wouldn't be adequate, and he'd need (knead?) something more like a 12 foot solid wall. (Barrier height/rigidity/etc.) Anyway, on the way their, I heard a Charles Osgood peace about dangling participles. It was hilarious! If anyone can find it, I'd be vary appreciative!!
