[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Split infinitives [/quote] So much anxiety from those two words and it has been many decades... My freshman year at college, I placed into an advanced English class with a Harvard educated kind of famous professor. It was a very small special class. He was amazing but intimidating as ALLHOLYHELL. After we had turned in and he had graded our first literary gifts, he lost his mind. At the beginning of the next class he angrily approached the chalk board and slammed the chalk into the board so hard bits flew everywhere. He wrote a few students names on the board and turned to us and spit out those two words. I have never forgotten. If you committed that vile crime, he wanted you to die. One classmate did it two weeks in a row and I don't know if he lived. [/quote] I think "to boldly go where no man has before" sounds better than "to go boldly where no man has before"[/quote]
