The last word on split infinitives? The English-speaking world may be divided into (1) those who neither know nor care what a split infinitive is; (2) those who do not know, but care very much; (3) those who know and condemn; (4) those who know and approve; (5) those who know and distinguish.
-- H. W. Fowler, A Dictionary of Modern English Usage (1965 edition) http://www.wordspy.com/waw/Fowler-H.W..asp I take it that Fowler, like all right-thinking people, approves of those individuals who come under option (5).
