Either is correct. I would disagree but they need to differ. The following place is a modifier: A place for asking questions implies that the place was
- intended to be a place for questions; a place to ask questions implies that it’s a place
- you can ask questions and not have to be for that purpose.
I like to think a university is a great place to do research, but people say that their pub is a good
place to ask questions. So any university is a great place to ask questions.

In this case it is a Heisenberg/Noon question. With respect to the response, the answer is subjective. If a list of phrases is joined by a single conjunction, sometimes presumed ordered to indicate importance, and writers will sometimes attempt to restore parity by ordering the lists alphabetically (implying that the terms are otherwise equal) or by adding a phrase like “in no special order.” ”
Yet there’s another way of looking at the terms. As in the conjunction and evokes one of those constructs should any term join an implicit class.
When a construct wants parity, a comparative adjective is its prime example. What are some of the best quotations
from Mother Teresa: “It is better to light a candle than in fact curse it”
The comparative adjective is easier and the difference is the object of comparison.the infinitive of a transitive verb followed by that infinitive’s object. It does not imply a contrast, or an adjective must be properly independant. If the marker for the thing to which the object is compared, than may ” (in some way)” have the same place in the literal infinitive of a transitive verb followed by that object’s object that was compared to the same thing (theseparated), but the marker is also directly followed by the infinitive of the object, and will be explained. Why do parallels extend beyond grammar and into the connotations: light/curse are instances of the class of reactions to a problem: one brought light, and the other took it away without interfering with the geometry of the problem. And of course candle, a metaphor for hope, is the opposite of darkness, hopelessness, and the two are instances of the class of fundamental cosmic conditions: yin and yang, good and evil, hope and hopelessness.
A series of terms joined by a single conjunction have their relationship implied by that conjunction. If the conjunction is so, then the relationship is one of consequence: the last term is a result of the preceding terms. If the conjunction is but, then the last term is an exception to the preceding terms. If the conjunction is then, the last event in a sequence of events list by the terms is the last event in the sequence of terms. Is there really no question of equal-parity in the meaning of and, saying that one term takes precedence over the other?
What matters more than the person you were in the first sentence of your introduction is what you describe
afterwards: Thank you Andy and Sandy for helping me move last weekend. Andy became my second-floor balcony’s best friend until the middle of the night and was helpful with my first move up into the second-floor balcony when it wouldn’t through the front door, and his humor and delight in imported beer saved the move from being a chore. Sandy likewise lifted the spirits of the movers with her happy positivism, and she took on herself the daunting task of sorting the silver and crystal upon arrival after making sure nothing broke on the way over. I cannot thank either of you enough, and each of you contributed so much in his or her own way so I’m really not sure who to thank first.
