Subj : Rawley's Incessant Whine To : Roy Witt From : Curtis Johnson Date : Sat Nov 04 2000 10:39 pm -=> Quoting Roy Witt to BOBBY QUEEN <=- RW> Hello BOBBY. If the rest of a salutation is not in all-caps, then the name should not be in all-caps. "Hello" should be set off by a comma. Salutations end with either a comma (informal) or colon (formal). They do not end with a period. RW> PS, Please clean up your english grammar. The MCC suggests English RW> 101 classes at your local 'adult education' facility, for moderators in RW> need. While the abbreviation for "postscript" may be either PS or P.S., when it begins an afterthought added to a letter it is followed by a colon (formal) or a dash (informal). It is never followed by a comma. The name of the language is always "English" with a capital E. On a philosophical note: it is generally wise to follow one's advice before giving it to others. --- Blue Wave/DOS v2.30 [NR] * Origin: America's favorite whine - it's your fault! (1:261/1000) .
