to do is an infinitive

to not do, to merrily do, to playfully do, to grudgingly do are all split...

This is a split infinitive and ungainly. The correct construction is "not to..." I'm sorry but it makes me go "grrrrr."

You'd better watch out or you'll have people after you for not talking OBS and GOBS. But thank you for your observation.

BTW what is a split infinitive?

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
