Former/Latter and Latter/Later

Hi all,

I don't see this too often, but thought I'd bring it up.

First of all, former vs. latter. Simply put, "former" is the first of two things in a list, and "latter" is the second of two things in a list.

Edward asked me if I wanted pizza or pasta for supper. I chose the former, as we had pasta last night.

Now, later vs. latter. From  About.com: "Use later when referring to time. Use latter when referring to the second of two persons or things mentioned previously."

That's all for now. I'll try to find something amusing or sexy to put up here soon, so I won't look like such a stick in the mud. Or Persnickety Bitch as I just labeled myself on Twitter. ;)
