On the contrary, clear English is a requirement for this list and all the
HPFGU lists. We are a diverse community from many different countries and
cultures, and taking the extra few minutes to make sure that your post is
clear and correct can make all the difference in how it is received. For
instance, had the original post been composed of clear sentences and
complete points, I might have received waynegregory's message as less of a
tirade and more of a serious observation.

All we have on these lists is our words and how they are chosen and framed.
Care in the handling of those words is always indicated; they represent us.

This is enough now; please contact me offlist if you have further comment.
