See, here's an example of where a knowledge of good English comes in
useful. The people behind the _real_ Who's Who would never use
"invite" as a noun. They would know that "invite" is a verb and that
the correct noun is "invitation".

It's a useful check against phishing attacks too. Most of which are
written by people who don't speak very good English. See

If only Spamassassin could be extended to check grammar :-)
