Horrors! Not this on a grammar thread:

Why do you think I left it up to Sowbug, to draw their own conclusions?

Who are they? Certainly not Sowbug, who is singular. And why was the last portion of the sentence set off with a comma?

May I suggest:

Why do you suppose I left it to Sowbug to draw his own conclusions?

And most importantly, does anybody care? Why is it that the distinction between sex and gender has fallen prey to PC lunacy? Why is it that a politcial aide in Washington D.C. was forced to retire because used the word "niggardly"? Because some ignoramous thought it was a racist word. Our language is doomed.

TTFN,
