Laura grammar I was at Epcot in Orlando last week to enjoy the Flower & Garden Festival and thought of you, Mignon. The sign at the xeriscaping exhibit states: "Xeriscape... not 'Zero'scape" Hee. I wonder if the exhibit designers listen to Grammar Girl. I attached photos of the exhibit to my e-mail last week. I love (and need) the show! :-) http://grammar.quickanddirtytips.com/xeriscape-zeroscape.aspx?commentid=12383#Comments http://grammar.quickanddirtytips.com/xeriscape-zeroscape.aspx?commentid=12383#Comments Fri, 18 Apr 2008 16:18:36 GMT Dylan grammar Why not visit Toronto? You have lots of listeners in Canada. It would be packed if you came. =) http://grammar.quickanddirtytips.com/xeriscape-zeroscape.aspx?commentid=11828#Comments http://grammar.quickanddirtytips.com/xeriscape-zeroscape.aspx?commentid=11828#Comments Mon, 03 Mar 2008 06:49:05 GMT Curious Boy grammar Some people posted some requests for you to come to cities in Texas other than Dallas. Forget that. Dallas is the most worthy city in Texas. Ignore them if they whine about my saying that. http://grammar.quickanddirtytips.com/xeriscape-zeroscape.aspx?commentid=11779#Comments http://grammar.quickanddirtytips.com/xeriscape-zeroscape.aspx?commentid=11779#Comments Tue, 26 Feb 2008 00:15:10 GMT Bethany grammar Thank you for this podcast! I live in Nevada where xeriscaping is big. And I started to think maybe I was crazy and made the word up, since all I hear is "zeroscape." It drives me crazy! http://grammar.quickanddirtytips.com/xeriscape-zeroscape.aspx?commentid=11770#Comments http://grammar.quickanddirtytips.com/xeriscape-zeroscape.aspx?commentid=11770#Comments Fri, 22 Feb 2008 21:43:03 GMT Bill Balderson grammar Please come to Orlando. Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck use atrocious grammar. Help!

Around here, we use Zeroscape to refer to landscaping that does not require any watering. Xeriscaping uses plants that require very little water, but do require some water beyond what falls from the sky. Here's a website that explains the difference: http://www.abcwua.org/content/view/73/63/ Love your show!

As your loyal aardvark, I would happily drive you to the wine country for a meal at the French Laundry. Since reservations must be made two months in advance, let me know ahead of time. http://grammar.quickanddirtytips.com/xeriscape-zeroscape.aspx?commentid=11761#Comments http://grammar.quickanddirtytips.com/xeriscape-zeroscape.aspx?commentid=11761#Comments Fri, 22 Feb 2008 04:29:11 GMT Angel Ailesnoires grammar Rambo is right!

With three large colleges and two junior colleges, along with many many high schoolers this would be a great place to stop! :) a little advertising would help make a very amazing outcome! http://grammar.quickanddirtytips.com/xeriscape-zeroscape.aspx?commentid=11751#Comments http://grammar.quickanddirtytips.com/xeriscape-zeroscape.aspx?commentid=11751#Comments Thu, 21 Feb 2008 05:53:13 GMT Fri, 18 Apr 2008 16:18:36 GMT http://grammar.quickanddirtytips.com/xeriscape-zeroscape.aspx feedback@quickanddirtytips.com (Managing Editor) feedback@quickanddirtytips.com (Webmaster) en-us
