[QUOTE="UPS Lifer, post: 509350, member: 9789"] This is dead on - A good foundation is key. However, I know a person who has a graduate degree and speaks (and writes) as if she is talking with others who have the same ability. She teaches at the college level. What disappoints me about some teachers and especially professors who are well educated, is the ability to talk and write on the same level as their audience. I read an article this person just wrote for an online publication and I had to dissect the sentences because the words used were way over my head. I am still not sure if the person was for or against the bailout! Know your audience and communicate directly with them! Be respectful and do your best to show you care enough to use proper punctuation, sentence structure and words that are appropriate for the audience. JMHO [/QUOTE]
