Alex, I understand what you are saying in your playful way.

I think about a couple of things when reading posts in Chief Delphi -
1. There are so many excellent opportunities to participate in discussions regarding just about any topic involving FIRST. If a post is badly worded or contains typos and errors, it can break down the flow of communication. That could impact the opportunity for the poster to present his or her thoughts clearly to a valuable and respected audience. (When posting in CD, it is always wise to remember who our readers are.)

2. Many students begin posting on CD as freshmen and sophomores on FIRST teams. When the times comes for applying to colleges and universities as seniors, the students have had the opportunity to participate in these fora, developing their skills in areas of communication, persuasion, and in the written language, itself. How cool is that?!
