Hi Milky,
I am sure you are a good grammarian;however, it has been my observation that some of your postings are impolite , vague and obdurate. If you do not agree with a response, it is better you explain which part you disagree and ask for explanation.But, if you rather simply ask a too generic question ,like 'why?', one wouldn't able to understand the real purpose of your question, and , some times, such questions might infuriate others. I hope you will take this in a positive way.

Dear Friend
When I see posts such as the one below, I like to know the reasoning behind such posts:
<
Perhaps we should redefine "intransitive verb" as "a verb that must have an agent"; and "transitive verb" as "a verb that must have a patient"...
MrP>
I think that's a normal reaction.
Maybe you should be questioning Mr P on why he gave the answer he did. I asked him why he thought we needed to redefine the above. His answer was "Why not?". If you think his answer was polite, we come from different zones.
Also, if you wish to make these discussions personal, you might be advised to send a personal message to me in future. It seems a better approach than clogging up these threads with personal views on individual posters.
