Grammatically
Speaking:
"We
owe much to our mother tongue. It
is through speech and writing that
we understand each other and can attend
to our needs and differences. If we
don't respect and honor the rules
of English, we lose our ability to
communicate clearly and well. In short,
we invite mayhem, misery, madness,
and inevitably even more bad things
that start with letters other than
M."

National Grammar Day

TRAGEDY: Patty Madsen, left, addresses
the quiet crowd that assembled outside Franklin,
Idaho, on a cold January day to remember the slaughter
of more than 400 Shoshone at the hands of a band
of California militia.
