An interesting book referral by Robin Stocks over at Carob (a blog).
This looks like it might be worth reading as ammo against the likes of Sick

:
David Crystal, The Fight for English: How Language Pundits Ate, Shot, and Left
(Oxford Paperback, 2006)
I’ll have to add it to my Amazon wishlist. Thanks Robin.
