Wind and Fire
Last night, it was "vegetation fire" on the news feed as it streamed across the TV screen.
This morning, in the Straits Times, front page:
'Experts said that "light wind conditions" since Friday have allowed the build-up of particles in the air.'
ST reporter said, '...and with weak winds unable to blow the smoke particles away.'
I cannot decide if I am amused or tortured anymore.

Maybe there should be a blog to make fun of all of ST's mistakes a la Mr Brown. :)
well.. it has been indeed quite hazy! :P
wildgoose - lost cause. besides, they are not true mistakes. they are just strange usage. ST seems only concerned that correct grammar and nothing else.
edpj - it was. weak winds not able to cope with blowing away particles, you understand?
