For those of you with so little to do that you visit www.quinzy.ca you'll no doubt have taken notice of the 'News' update of 24 February, 2010. The Management wishes to make it crystal clear that we have not had anything to do with the composition or posting of this recent news item, as will be obvious to anyone skimming it who possesses basic skills in English grammar, style and usage. It reads, to wit: "...Sign up for our email list...and get 'ADMIT', the third track off of our most recent EP 'SELF-DEFENSE'!
"Off of"? Someone seriously WROTE "off of'" in a sentence meant to publicize the band's worthiness for attention by the general public? The word is FROM, not "off of", nor "offa", nor "ugh" or any other Neanderthal onomatopoeia.
