Default Re: How do you answer tough grammar questions?

I can't think of any situation where one would say 'A man is at the door' - it just doesn't sound natural. As for as 'There is the camera on the table' is concerned, it would only work if there were a pause in the sentence, ie: 'There's the camera (we were looking for) - on the table'.
I love these questions. Keep 'em coming!
