Have you ever been exposed to the joys of Strunk and White's The 
Elements of Style?  I was able to avoid it in undergrad school but it 
was a required text in my law school's Legal Writing class, as well as 
the Holy Writ for the resident grammarian to whom I've been married for 
a couple of decades.

Is an Elecraft gray, or grey?

Actually, it can be spelled either way.  After much debate, I've settled
on gray since a comes before e in the alphabet.

Here is a site you (that's the plural form) may be interested in.  It
lists many common errors in English.  It's great fun to click and read.

Your Mr. Webster has a lot to answer for.  He was either lazy or could 
not spell, yet he had the supreme cheek to write a dictionary.

He may have suffered brain damage from coffee, instead of tea.

Loose is the opposite of tight.

Lose is when you don't win
