Subject:Re: New TECHWR-L Poll Question From:"Mark L. Levinson" <nosnivel -at- netvision -dot- net -dot- il> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Tue, 09 Oct 2001 20:02:17 +0200
The question is whether...
Technical writers, with regard to grammatical issues:
* Should uphold the highest standards of proper use
* Should choose non-standard, common use as needed
* Other/none of the above
It seems to me that upholding the highest standards of proper
use necessarily involves choosing the non-standard, common
use as needed.
But isn't this subject inappropriate anyway according to
Eric's latest reminder?
