No offence.I am in an environment that everyone is getting hundreds of emails & doing millions of things everyday. So to effectively pass on a message, we are used to put up a few bullet points at the beginning to get ppl's attention. Massive text sometimes make ppl drowsy.

Starting with catching title + executive summary, that is.

Nonetheless, on Rolia, the wincity id bears reputation, which exempts him from the rule.

I'm writing an article, not a report. I'm trying to persuade people, not to pass information. I can summarize the article in one sentence, but if I do, you won't read the article.

Take it easy. There are always different opinions.

Do I appear uneasy? I'm just telling my side of the story. I have high respect for vicky and david who disagreed with me the last time.

I agree with Toad. Writing to persuade is completely different than writing to inform.

It is our tradition to speak ambiguously. 尽在不言中啊。 Besides, it's a trend to use wrong and totally nonsense words deliberately now.It's kind of à la mode. Nobody seems to be offended and look at it as a faux pas. In fact, some of us are trying to mimic it, so they can have a téte-à-téte with peers. Of course, this eventually will get into cul-de-sac. Because, plus ca change, plus c'est la même chose.
I don't know what I am talking about. But it's so cool to pile up a whole bunch of fancy words here you and I don't understand......

Billy Crystal is a funny guy. The other guy looks like Nixon.

It's a good topic, but unfortunately the example you provided is more for slapping on the 1 cent lady's face then elaborating you points. One thing for effective communication is not to get personal..;-)...keep going.

I actually think it's a great example. Am I mad at her? Not at all. I'm not even sure if she's mean or if she's just trying to be funny. If the latter, great, because I'm trying to be funny as well.
