[Nfb-editors] question about editing articles

[Mike Freeman]

Fine those who submit grammatically-incorect articles a dollar a mistake, 
saying it's a fund-raiser for your state affiliate. (grin)

Actually, I fear me greatly that skill in writing has been severely 
neglected in schools for the past thirty years. The lack of competence in 
braille just makes it work.
