Default "Fewer", Not "Less"

For crying out loud! Even so-called professional journalists can't get it straight anymore. The word "fewer" refers to things one can count: people, cars, airplanes, girls as in: "there's fewer people attending tonight's games than last week." The word "less" refers to volume of something such as air or water as in: "there's less water going over Niagara Falls today as opposed to 200 years ago."

The English language is being distorted almost beyond recognition by hostile change agents and graduates of dumbed-down journalism schools. The usual suspects can't wait to render all languages of Whites unusable so we will just end up babbling at each other. Confusion is a weapon.
