After I clicked the send button on that one I had the horrible thought
that people might take it seriously - glad to see that you realised I
was trying to be humorous !

Come on Alan, Correct grammar please "AMONGST". We can't have

Since when did I relinquish my right to be sole arbiter of (grammatical)
standards in this group, Dave ? And, since you are concerned about
standards, I believe you will agree that your first sentence requires better
punctuation. Furthermore, although Burchfield's "New Fowler's"
has a longish entry on among and amongst, Partridge states clearly, and in
my opinion rightly, that amongst is obsolescent for among. Maybe it's just
an age thing, but that's illegal now anyway !
