Sad thing is, its only gonna get worse - teachers don't teach grammar the way they used to it seems, and when newspapers employ journalism students who cant use a dictionary or thesaurus, then you know the people reading it are going to pick up the same bad habits.
Check out any article on adelaidenow.com.au for example.... loads of error, and it seems that the editor doesn't edit anymore...
Mind you this was inevitable since we lost the news years ago - having a single newspaper in a city doesn't do anyone any favours.. and for what its worth, the australian seems to have more important articles, rather than be filled with nonsense about what b grade celebrity is doing what. They even dedicated a whole page to Kellie Nestors impending pregnancy - which is nice for the girl but cmon, is that newsworthy?

EDIT - Not in a GTR nigel, but did get a very nice one made up for my old r31 by boss engineering at lonsdale - top work if you're interested in getting a replacement
