Who me? BLUSH?

Well Peace, I did try to report an error in one of the questions on my pSAT exam; but they never answered my letter. (They were wrong. Multiple choice and NO CORRECT ANSWER to choose.)

(That was before mothers hired lawyers to sue when their kids turned up less than perfect.)

That was probably just a precocious knack though, that's long since faded.

"Writing things simple" is something I had to work on for many years, trying to help suppliers build the parts needed instead of just shipping what they had. But it takes a big contract to be able to lead them along "with authority." I don't have nearly as much success with the corner market.
