If you insist.

Tell me if I am wrong. Or too strict.

In the whole post, and being a real quibbler and unfair, because some are certainly typos, I count

1. 'that' instead of 'who' following 'those'

2. incorrect antecedent (" those... are the most mediocre of all including M.I.T...")

3. third '.' in 'M.I.T.' omitted

4. period after close parenthesis (could be British usage)

5. 'here' instead of 'hear'

6. 'that' instead of 'who' following 'flunkies'

7. 'there' instead of 'their'

8. 'thier' instead of 'their'

(YES)
