Oh, absolutely! Let me open that attachment right away!

Dear spammer: If only you had studied grammar with a good thorough handbook that included subject/verb and antecedent/pronoun agreement, the difference between indirect and direct objects, thesaurus use, and maybe even diagramming, you'd sucker a whole lot more people in.

Good grammar continues to be important. Even in the information age.
