Jeff,
I don't have a link to the Post article; I read it from the front
page on 10/23. The headline: Clauses and Commas Make a Comeback."
But here are two NCTE links with their statements; it's the first one
that is clearly the direct response to the Post article; the second
one is a reprint from the Council Chronicle; both are dated 10/26:
