May 13	comment	“requested to” vs “requested from” @Kris: Thanks for the input. I thought that both could be used, but according to the comments and answers, `requested to` is ungrammatical.
May 13	comment	“requested to” vs “requested from” @BraddSzonye: Thanks Bradd, I understand the problem now.
May 13	comment	“requested to” vs “requested from” Thanks, useful information. Perhaps `information` was a bad example, how about the hits for tests requested to the?

Apr 25	comment	Is “sans” a drop-in replacement for “without”? @Chris: People usually do not consciously engage in language extermination. It generally stems from a natural process of language evolution. The usage of `sans` has simply died out (although I've seen it used by non-native English speakers).

Jan 25	comment	What's the English equivalent of the Japanese saying, “A fart ruins 100 days of sermons by the priest (bishop)”? These sayings are usually found in any English-kotowaza(proverb) dictionary. See here: `A good name is sooner lost than won.` or `An hour has destroyed what an age has built`. (although they lose the humorous aspect).

Oct 9	comment	Origin of word “xfered” Excellent, this was what I was looking for. It makes a lot more sense explaining why it is an abbreviation.
Oct 9	comment	Origin of word “xfered” @coleopterist: Thanks, that seems to answer my question. Although, I wonder which is more common, one "r" or two (i.e., `xferred` or `xfered`).

May 22	comment	“Suited to” vs. “suited for” Hmm.. reading the links Cameron posted makes me feel that they are not interchangeable, i.e., "Japan is suited to agriculture" would be wrong.
