Most people in my office in Miami are not native English speakers. Due to
the Microsoft Word 2003 grammar checker they end up saying "Please advice."
The Thesaurus defines "advise" as a verb meaning to offer advice. Why does
the grammar checker not recognize this in the simple sentence "Please
advise." Another example of this problem occurred in a list of job duties
including "Guide and advise the college administration..." The grammar
checker suggests "advice." I see this every day and feel embarrassed for our
professional staff.

Does this bother anybody else?
