Hello all.
 
I am a trainer for a law firm of about 130 employees and have set myself
the (probably Quixotic) task of teaching 60 attorneys and their support
staff how to speak and write this great language of ours.
 
The catch:  On any topic, I tend to lose this group after about 30 minutes.
 
I am forever in your debt for any tips on putting together a short-short
grammar and usage session for a group of professionals and learning
resisters who could probably care less and, worse, don't realize they
need the class to begin with.
 
I'm a grammar geek who can't fathom where to begin to narrow it down
to "the basics."
 
Any help accepted with much groveling.  Thanks.
