I have a small calendar at home, that kind where you remove the files as days pass. On one side of its files you can find important events which occurred in the past, while on the back side you may find some very interesting short writings. By pure chance, after I removed a file of this calendar I found an article on its page, which relates so much to our campaign of improving the posts quality in our local boards. And this campaign, in fact, vouches for the correct use of our mother languages.
The author of the article is unknown, signing it as "T.C.Z.". But, whoever this T.C.Z., is, he is so right with what he's saying!

The peaceful principle saying that "The language is a living phenomena" is a debatable one: terrorists are also a living phenomena. So are the sharks. Or real estate sharks. And so are also foolishness, cowardice or malice... This does not mean we accept them. And the idea that "The habit wins over the rule" is really a language killer. [...]
It's a well written comment in your calendar and it's very true. Sometimes, it's sooo easy to improve our language, when we are aware of it to do it correctly and spot bad influences, for example from excessive marketing (to make a product look better). The author of the article is unknown, signing it as "T.C.Z.". But, whoever this T.C.Z., is, he is so right with what he's saying!

Your calendar is emphasizing it in a very creative and accurate way.
Some malicious phenomena are indeed living phenomena but not vital phenomena.
We should always try to keep malicious phenomena at bay.
Maybe this text would determine all of us to try to use our languages more correctly...
I hope so, dear GazetaBitcoin. Luckily, applying our native languages correctly is not very difficult, sometimes we just need to be aware of it. At least you seem to have a very nice calendar.
