Hello Maurice,
I have the library copy of GGBB here and do occasionally look at it after
checking some of others first. This *" ingressive-progressive" present
imperative* is a good illustration of why I tend to leave Wallace alone. I
don't care to argue about whether Wallace is right or wrong. I just find his
approach somewhat befuddling. Using Wallace is like touring the Winchester
House, yes it is a building but you will waste your time trying to discover
what the architect was up to.
Thanks,
Clay
