Look in any newspaper or recent book, and I'll wager you find sentences that start with a preposition. When I went to grade school, they certainly frowned on it, but my impression is that this particular grammar rule has been relaxed in recent years. Thoughts?...Mike p.s. It's probably better to start the sentence with "In addition," instead of "And", just to be safe.   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk?
