Time for a pet peeve brought on by excessive blogging. Whenever comparing things it is most appropriate to use the word "than."

Example: "I would rather take a walk than sit around surfing the 'net."

Increasingly, I find my friends and co-bloggers using the word "then" in place of the aforementioned "than."

For those who don't understand, the word "then" is used to show sequence--"I went for a walk then sat around surfing the 'net for an hour."

Please make a note, and make appropriate corrections.

Have a nice day.
