The pot calling the kettle black? It's "other than you", not "other then you".
I once worked as a fuel transfer technician (pump jockey) at a local service station. One day, a man came into our office laughing himself sick. When asked why he was laughing, he replied, "there's a stupid customer at the self service island adding oil to his generator. What an idiot!"
What's the point of this bit? Well, the unknowing customer was indeed wrongly adding motor oil to his power power-steering pump, not,however, to his generator. No auto generator has ever been made that would allow you to add a quart of oil to it, and further, by the time this happened generators had long been replaced on automobile with alternators.
Moral: Don't criticize someone else's grammar, unless you can write one whole grammatically correct sentence yourself. Still laughing?
