Ed goes a break up. C'mon - that Canadian stuff seems to be suiting the British contingent.

As Stircrazy will tell you, it isn't possible to win less points than someone.

Fewer points. 

Supermarkets get that wrong too with 'less than 8 items'!

Yes, I always purposefully break a few cartons of eggs whenever I see that. The worst common grammatical error amongst non-morons.

I got Jeff's reference to SC there even if she didn't! LOL

I often catch myself writing "less" in such situations and having to correct myself - must be one of those things that people get wrong so often that it sticks in your head and you end up doing it too if you're not careful. Still, some people couldn't care fewer (oops wink)

Ah, now I see.  I'd been deliberately biting my tongue on that one, so to speak, but with considerable difficulty...  You finally tempted me to nail my colours to the mast! hmm

P.S.  I couldn't help but notice that you managed to correct the spelling of my user name quite quickly. wink
