I should have chosen a better paragraph, but this one conveyed the crux of the post better. Hopefully you will read the whole post - she makes some good points. :) Fair point.

Do we..." Now I don't know if this is intentional from the author, but I see glaring punctuation flaws here. In the first quote, there is a space between 'dates' and the comma (and between 'grammar' and the comma). A very fundamental blunder (any magazine editor or word processor will tell you) In the second quote, there is a clear sign of carelessness. A period after a question mark? Are you kidding me? Sorry for that, but couldn't help but spot the irony! :) To quote from the quote itself:
