Butchered English

Here is another problem in this country (USA). People who live and work here do not know how to speak and write proper English. Take this line from a news story about a new Verizon service as seen on www.pcworld.com this morning.

Verizon first announced that it was trialing LTE services in two U.S. cities last February.

Damn it, there is no such word as "trialing". That should be "testing LTE services". What effing idiots. Yes it is a trial run but it involves testing. Don't try to change the whole damn language to fit your failings of simple high school English 101A.

Friggin' idiots!!!!!!!
