I thought that I was the only one that that irritated! And actually, it's "there", "their" AND "they're" that get abused. Also, "your" and "you're " are misused on a near daily basis. Please understand that this is NOT aimed at our international bretheren. My total lack of any non-English language skills certainly puts me in no position to cast stones, but we English-as-a-first-language types have no excuse.

What always gets me is "there's a lot of". There is a lot of? It's a contraction of "there" and "is", people!
