Temporal and Spatial Agreement
27th July 2011
In sum, temporally and spatially backward statements cause readers and listeners to do the work that is properly done by writers and speakers — if they care about the clarity and accuracy of what they write and say. It is all too evident that many writers and speakers do not care about being understood; they prefer to deliver verbiage and let the audience sort it.
A word of sense in these degenerate modern times.
