Richard Firsten has answerd grammar questions in TESOL's "Grammatically speaking" column for over 8 years and now he's retired and passing the column off to T. Leo Schmitt. Over the years I have been a regular critic of Fristen's analyses. I've responded on my blog to Fristen's last ever explanation, which was really no explanation at all. It may be ungracious of me, but I'm glad to see the end of him. I do hope that Schmitt will do a better job.

Best,
Brett
