I am an old lady and am trying to make peace with split infinitives. It is hard.

Just found a good example of faulty reference, or misplaced modifiers which you had a column about fairly recently. Fairly recently had a column about? It's from the canoe.ca news network, the Winnipeg Sun I believe.

Quote: "The male allegedly stabbed a 32-year-old woman who was also attending the party before fleeing. The victim was taken taken to hospital, where she was treated for non-life threatening stab wounds to her shoulder and released."
