Group demands that restaurant change name to "In, and Then Out Burger"
An overturned Volvo station wagon, bedraggled bow ties littering the street, and dozens of shredded copies of The Blue Book of Grammar and Punctuation served as stark reminders of the violence that occurred Sunday afternoon after fighting broke out during a protest by hundreds of grammar experts.
"It started out peacefully enough, but then some uninvited addlepate showed up with a sign containing both the non-word "supposably" as well as a dangling participle. That's when participants began to altercate," said Aldous Menning III of Orinda. Menning said a patch was torn off one elbow of his tweed jacket, but that he was otherwise unhurt. He added that the group's next rally, planned for next month, will target Toys-R-Us.
