Ah, but the web page
(http://businessmajors.about.com/library/weekly/aa120202b.htm) used it as an
example of BAD writing, not good.
The next sentence (penned by whoever wrote the web page, not the possibly
apocryphal quotee) was "Give me a minute to stop laugh at that ridiculous
piece of writing.". Not exactly a stellar example of good writing itself,
but at least it puts it in context.
