Marshall,
I'm interested in the idea but wonder what you mean by "a strong background
in grammar." I have a Ph.D. in composition studies and have taught freshman
comp, expository writing, and business writing at a state university for
over 10 years. I teach grammar to help my writing students clarify their
meaning and write credible prose. I do not remember Chomsky or know theory
terms for grammar.
I meet the rest of the terms mentioned in your second graph.
Hope to hear from you.
