GG, thanks for the overwhelming praise. I am flattered. Come to think of it, I did say it in pretty concise,
short and sweet way, did I not?
Sadly, there are so many ESL teachers who are so grammatically narrow minded that they tend to forget the most important rule of all: "Unless readers understand what you are saying loud and clear in one shot, that sentence does not mean $#@*."
Thanks again.
JM
