Stephen Fry on Linguistic Pedants

Stephen Fry (aka Jeeves of Jeeves and Wooster fame) is one of those people whose voice is so pleasant to listen to that I could probably happily listen to him talk about anything; Morgan Freeman is another. Luckily, this excerpt from one of his podcasts (full version here) is actually quite fascinating, and I agree with him wholeheartedly. On top of that, someone has made an excellent video to go along with it, using a technique called Kinetic Typography if you want to be fancy, or "moving text" if you don't.
