The Alot.

Errors in spelling, punctuation and grammar bug me, one of many being the tendency of some people to write "a lot" as one word ("alot"). The other day, though, my friend Dan pointed me in the direction of this rather glorious piece explaining what people really mean when they speak of Alots. For the first time, Alot makes sense. You can picture that as an Alot writing a formula on a blackboard.
