 TAG's Iron Fist
Subject: Grammar error in "TAG's Iron Fist" article
Date: 2002-10-04 13:24:46
From: Lew Bloch

In the article "TAG's Iron Fist" there is a sentence, "And therein lays the flaw."


This sentence should have used the intransitive verb "to lie" rather than the transitive verb "to lay." As it stands, the sentence lacks a subject (who laid the flaw?).
