Then that's just too bad, I guess. HN is an English speaking site. The ability to articulate your thoughts in the medium chosen for the discourse is cost of entry. Poor grammar is a quick indicator of content quality to me. In fact, it's just about the only thing I will downvote. Maybe it's because I was raised by an English professor. Edited: Typo (of course)

"en English professor" Sorry buddy, gotta downvote you now. Based on that typo I can tell that this comment lacks quality and doesn't add to the discourse.

  What's good for the goose is good for the gander. Do as you will :) (I was wondering how long it would take before I let one slip. It never fails when discussing grammar online.)
