Rebecca, I did enjoy the conversation you sent me. It reminds me how powerful the language can be and politically charged. I hope I wasn't too grouchy this morning when I rean into you. I was really counting on getting some work done on the computer and I'm getting a little tired of not being able to count on it. (There I go again). Anyway, I hope I didn't cast a shadow on your day by my mood. Hope you have a good weekend. Will see you next week. I have some interesting issues I would like to discuss with you. Like, how much does congress really know about ebonics. They use such clear standard English in all the documents they produce. (food for thought) Gary
