Subject:Usage of the word "thru" From:"John E. Brush" <brush -at- CIVENG1 -dot- CIV -dot- PITT -dot- EDU> Date:Wed, 17 Aug 1994 18:48:11 GMT
Am I the only Technical Writer who uses "thru" when referring to a
series of items? The people who review my manuscripts would rather
see the word "through," but I'm sticking with thru unless my fellow
writers tell me I'm wrong.
