Allan Gotthelf asserts:

>"To the store" is NEVER a sentence ...

Perhaps not strictly grammatically, but it is certainly a valid and
meaningful response to the question "Where are you going?".  And in that
respect, it supports the notion implicit in much of this discussion that
context is important, and a definition that doesn't say anything about
context is probably going to fail one or more of Sterling's tests.
