Clinton's Catch-96
The fronts at the LAT , NYT , and WP feature obits for Catch-22 author Joseph Heller, who died Sunday at age 76 of a heart attack.
We have here a delightfully constructed catch-22: if you don't study your grammar you're uneducated; if you do, you've been exposed to a proper education by your kindly school system; but when you use one of your grammar book's dreadfully improper constructions as a model, you place yourself in the class of the obviously simple-minded, whose opinions are irrelevant.
