Should let this pass without comment, but I fail.

Born-and-raised American, semi-European parantage, and a decided excess
of exposure to BBC news.  It's a usage I've aquired, not entirely
consciously.  I also find it useful as corporate and other aggregate
entities are in fact collectives.

Public gratuitous irrelevant grammar trolling.  Now *that* is a cause I
can really get behind.


Peace.
