Title: Re: [QUAD-L] Oh my words (Re: ADA Abuse)
“To err is human,” as the saying goes Tod. So join the
rest of us who sometimes fail to take time for proofing.
 
How many daughters does your addressee have anyway?
Do the daughters have names?

You might have written simply: “Your patient’s daughter
Gwendolyn, is the innocent object of direct discrimination.”

That way, you’ll come across twice as “think” as some people
“dumb” you are.”

Oh, well... so much for proof reading....

I wrote:

But, in any wonder why kids can't write correctly, this science teacher (not English, thank God) meant to change:

"I am being directly discriminated against..."
            OR
"I, one of your patient's daughters, am being directly discriminated against..."
            OR
"One of your patient's daughters is being directly discriminated against..."

... and I just couldn't words my together get order in.
