Re: ld, ad(h)d, & flames
hi,
i want to thank the folks who've already responded to my posting
requesting help, advice, and resources regarding creating a writing
center. what each of you contributed to our discussions (arguments)
around what will go into and out of our writing center is invaluable!
you are all excellent, generous, and amazing!
but i want especially to thank christy for her unsolicited but
welcome criticism of my quirky aversion to capital letters. i'm sorry
that the absence of taller letters interfered with her
comprehending my questions because i am honestly looking for feedback
about creating a writing center...sorry: I AM HONESTLY LOOKING FOR
FEEDBACK ABOUT CREATING A WRITING CENTER.
so, christy, all, thanks for all of your help and support.
cheers, john: the "english instructor"
for the benefit of new readers, here's what christy wrote:
Dear english instructor: I enjoyed your note, but I expect you would
get better response if you corrected the capitalization errors in you
E- mail. Oversight is one thing...blantant misuse in a professional
inquiry make it difficult for a reader to take you seriously. Sorry,
I lost the key purpose of your inquiry because the errors distracted
my attention.
