Yes, yes I am- to the point of frequently editing my posts after the fact to fix grammar and spelling.  Philosophically I'd like to agree with the descriptivists... but there are some things that I just cannot see without involuntarily shuddering.  The worst, of course, is when people add apostrophe's to word's to pluralize them.

That being said, I have a dark confession to make: I use two spaces after a period.  I know it's wrong, but I just can't help myself.
