Hello, NETTRAINers -
Hi, my name is Leslie O'Flahavan. I have been a list lurker for about 2 weeks
now, so I guess it's time for me to jump in. I'd like to introduce myself and
my company and invite you to a program my company is offering this fall.
E-WRITE is a writing training and consulting company. We like to say that we
exist at the intersection of technology and communication. We help people

• Which rules of writing for print apply to e-mail (and which don't!)
