Yesterday I "met" this guy on OkCupid. He is very interested in me. He keeps emailing me and wants to meet. I am not well-travelled in California and he wants to take me to various places and stuff... wonderful. He lives far away and is prepared to drive for two hours to meet me - he is motivated. And, we talked on the phone, which is important to me because my main source of information about a person is his voice, NOT looks (I am unusual in this regard, probably). So his voice is very pleasant. Everything is pleasant, except for one thing. He said about Stockton, his city of residence "Stockton has LESS people than Sacramento". Not "FEWER" which would have been correct but "LESS". That disgusted me. And English is his native language, so... no excuses for him. But in all other regards he seems promising. And now I do not know - do I fight this weird preference for proper English or do I live with it and eliminate people who make mistakes?
