I have no problem with regional variations, they add to the richness  
of the language.  I do have a problem with cr*p education systems ...

... wherever they have flourished ;-)  Systems that have failed to  
teach the basics of our language(s) so that we can spot where we are  
going wrong, or right.

I can't bear "comprise of", or "may" where it should clearly be "might".
