Seriously, I never imagined that was poor writing. I mean, there are rules for it, aren't there? Is writing with sentences which finish with prepositions considered bad style?
It's certainly very common, just like swearing, but shouldn't parents be warned so they can protect their children from it?

[and I see quoting Norman Mailer isn't welcome on these forums, so much for literature]
