O.K. folks, I just have to vent. Been listenin' to a lot of CNN and NPR,
and if I hear another journalist mis-use the word "whether", by saying
whether or not- I will scream!!! Aren't these folks supposed to know
better?!

Whether or not they do misuse it, you should consider yourself lucky. Its
the news that they report that makes *me* want to scream. I was watching
Fox "News" the other day and it was totally obscessed with two subjects.
Sadam's capture and Scott Peterson's legal travails. The first is obviously
news worthy but the second should be on page 12 of the newspaper.
