OT: markups

[Deirdre Reagan]

LOL -- the "Happy to Glad" rule!  Never heard of it.  That's very funny.

Thanks so much for the comments so far.  A lot of my comments are of
the "must change" variety, but a lot of my comments are "it could be
this way if you mean this, and it could be this way if you mean that"
and the author realizes, "oh! not clear," and rewrites in a third,
clear way.

This is probably a small issue, but I just wanted to check with you
experts to see how the world at large handles it, before I start
laying down the law here in my corner of the universe.

As usual, you people are funny and full of wisdom.  I love this list.
