>Ah, Strunk&White "the Elements of Style" agree;

While I have no comments whatsover on the correctness
of the grammatical form, I will point out that sometimes
stodgy old grammaticians who think they know how the
language _ought_ to be used are sometimes out of touch
with how their own language is _actually_ used.
