I agree! And I agree in ending sentences with prepositions when we want to.

Winston Churchill said something like this, when someone tried to correct HIS syntax:

One of the great "Team" threads was about Latin plant names vs common names. Usually the "Team" questions brought out threads for one way, the other way, and both ways. I seem to recall that one had more than just three sides. There were certainly many advantages and disadvantages brought forth.

In school, we loved to argue about things. When we started to run out of steam, one or more people would change sides just to keep it interesting.
