"That" is used far too much, especially in writing. People often use it was a connector word and the sentence is much better without it. Case in point, I just read the following: "We know that this mission is not only achievable - it is well within our grasp." Just say "We know this mission is not only achievable - it is well within our grasp."
Also count me in the irregardless(ly) and "I seen that" hating camps. "I seen that" is the worst though. To me, nothing makes a person sound more uneducated.
