I don’t see it as elitist at all. Competence, and consideration of the reader, play a part anytime one attempts to explain his thoughts and ideas to others. Pride in being concise and clearly understood seems to have been lost in today’s time. I regret that very much.

I regret the loss of even the English language as well. I agree with you, but I do not think an attempt by someone to be heard should be ignored because he probably doesn’t have the best education in the world. There are some who refuse to listen because someone doesn’t have a diploma in such and such profession. I’m a country girl, well educated, well traveled, and what might be called international. I still find the greatest gems in the old fisherman who chews up his words, or the granny whose homemade elixir works better than the Dr.’s pills. That’s all I was trying to say. Perhaps I have a greater experience with people than most.
