And dangling participles or preppositions or what-not - those irritate a lot of people. But I feel this is all quite unnecessary stress. I have never ever felt bothered by unmatched parentheses. What I really am botheres by is interrupting parentheses within parentheses. (And here I shall give two examples: (1) This sentence; and (2) Another sentence that has no relevance to the other sentence)). Where's the library at? Question: What comes before a preposition? A pre-preposition?
