If you're on the Interweb and a bit bored (a not unlikely combination), try doing a search on 'The Pedant's Apprentice', and look up some of the comments.
I have no idea whether there is just one person or maybe thousands using this alias, but the sheer number and accuracy of comments made by the person (or people) using that alias are absolutely astounding.

It is Dearieme under another name.
Should that be "number .. is" or "number .. are"?
I think that that first comment was probably by The Pendant's Apprentice really.
I knew I was buggered once I started mixing singular and plural.
Yup, "number ... is" is correct.
Bugger.
In fact, sod it, I've removed the brackets round 'and accuracy' instead.
Does that look better.
