- Megabuddies--
-
- I was really intrigued by Becky's question about the tone of our current
- "rhetoric of technology" and would love to see some of your discussion.
- Becky,
- here's a suggestion for you--why not collect the responses, editing
- slightly for coherence and to eliminate redundancy, add an explanatory
- introduction, and submit the discussion to Computers and Composition? Paul
- LeBlanc is including a sort of group interview/discussion in the upcoming
- software issue in November (subscribe, you laggards--whoever you are!) and
- a similar p[iece on our current rhetoric of technology might be really
- neat? You, of course, might want to facilitate the discussion--throwing
- out salient and insightful questions evry now and again to make sure the
- discussion is robust and informative!!
-
- Cindy (whom, you might notice, has switched to the less objectionable
- "megabuddies" in light of the recent discussions linking her
- discourse
- practices--god forbid--to Playboy!!!)
