Article-I.D.: csu-cs.2024 Posted: Wed Feb 16 13:52:36 1983 Received: Mon Feb 21 08:22:29 1983 I hereby announce that I, for one, will stop reading any article I see that is blatantly ignorant of English. This includes: articles that are all lower-case; pre-nroff crud; 167-character lines and 45-line sentences; etc. Note the word "blatantly". English is a complex set of rules often better bent (or broken) for effect. No-one is perfect -- especially not me. Some mispelling I can tolerate. But I've seen junk lately that not even your mothers would be proud of! Not afraid to scream into the void, Alan Silverstein
