Subject:SSI Facts and Myths, etc. From:John Wheeler <johnwh -at- CISCO -dot- COM> Date:Tue, 29 Jul 1997 10:16:32 -0700
I scanned through the report "Facts & Myths" prepared
by SSI (see http://www.radiotower.com/ssi-can/facts.html).
The document is filled with usage errors, mispunctuations,
and run-on sentences (to name a few of the obvious
problems). While people can debate the merit or lack of
merit of the document's contents, there can be no doubt that
the document is poorly written. One cannot help but form a poor
opinion of the writing abilities of its author or authors.
Cheers.
