Dennis,
I'd like to respond to your survey, but read this sentence carefully.
I think you wrote it backwards.
Shouldn't it be
The STC Code ... has been replaced by the STC Ethical Guidelines.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
OR
The STC Ethical Guidelines (published in 1995) replaced the STC
Code for Communicators.
You should revise your survey or you will create confusion.
Regards,
LaVonna
