self-policing
"one of those books that everyone seems to love but i" or "one of those books that everyone but i seems to love"? both, i think, are technically right, but the latter runs into the problem of the verb jarring because it disagrees with the proximal pronoun. shaun asserts that the latter syntax is more correct, but it seems yukky to me. i don't know.
