-> I know that it is common to preface or end some statements with IMO
-> or IMHO but it seems obvious that if I am stating something that it
-> is my opinion.  I have had some people say some unfair things to me
-> (not here-- grin) and then say.."in my opinion of course."  It seems
-> redundant and unnecessary.
I understand what you're getting at here. However, in this medium, where
we lack the facial expressions, voice intonation and other body
language, such little remarks can serve to make the intent or "tone" of
the statement more clear than it might otherwise be in a plain text
format. After all, while I, too, learned that, in formal writing such
remarks are considered redundant and are therefore poor style, this
isn't a formal writing environment here!
-> I also don't think I said "this is the way" -- correct way to
-> teach.....I have said "this is the way" that WL really looks like
-> (theoretically).
Uh, I can't put my finger on it right now, and have no intention to go
back and search what messages from you may remain on our system related
to this topic, but you definitely came across at least a few times as
"holding the correct opinion". Well, I guess we all do that in
discussions of this type.
-> I also understand that when I say that WL is a better way to teach I
-> am stating a personal opinion.  It is an opinion that many others
-> share with me, but it is just an opinion. (However a correct
-> one.....:)
