    Let's face it; grammar should be required of all students. We've seen the results of those who cannot communicate effectively right here.

    A good bit of structured grammar never goes astray. :)

    I read parts at Barnes & Noble. It is an important part of grammar and everyone should have the basics down.
    I try to use proper punctuation and spelling, but alas, it has been nearly 10 years since I was really required to (and even then my professor was not a stickler) so I have lost some of the things I learned in High School.

    I felt her pain too!
    Did your copy come with the little 'the panda says no!' stickers?

    I saw it the other day and nearly picked it up. If recommended by all of you, I suppose I'll get it!
