I’m pretty sure I used then vs than correctly. I’m no grammar scholar by any means; maybe you are. Much better at the math and science thing.
The then vs than debacle:
The way to keep the pair straight is to focus on this basic difference: than is used when you're talking about comparisons; then is used when you're talking about something relating to time. Than is the word to choose in phrases like smaller than, smoother than, and further than.
I was comparing Tennessee’s athletic department to LSU’s. So I went with than. Who’s the clown now?
