That's true. We didn't get taught any grammar when I was at school, well not in any comprehensive manner anyway. It's a shame really, it's one thing having a dynamic language where new words can be made up, but I personally hate seeing incorrect punctuation.
On a similar topic, I must say I enjoy hearing all these new verbs people (especially sports commentators) make up. The other day someone was said to be 'box-seating' 
I'm terribly torn about the way language is changing. Part of me is screaming "No! No! Its not MEANT to be like that! It should be like THIS.....!"
And the other part of me is saying "Yippee! Go, man, go! Innovation forever!"
Maybe its just my Piscean nature showing... Or my age!
