Podcasting. . .for the blind?

Many sight impaired people have listened to audio books provided by

National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped but since the 1970's they've had to rely on specialized cassette tapes shipped through the mail.  Now the service is about to move to flash memory.  Why not podcast the books and save the postage?!?

Corporate American can't build. . .A sentence!

www.news.com reports that Email, has corrupted the ability of a whole generation to create English not only from the syntactical viewpoint but the grammatical as well. 

 

A writing coach recently got an email request that included a sentence, all in lower case, with no punctuation, that read: "my boss want me to help improve the workers writing skills can yall help me"
