I was not home schooled but I have close family who home school and good friends too. This kind od discrimination makes no sense to me at all. Thanks for the heads up.

]]> Comment on Seek and Ye Shall Find by A curious reader http://harmon.wordpress.com/2006/12/07/seek-and-ye-shall-find/#comment-154 A curious reader Mon, 21 Jan 2008 19:17:01 +0000 http://harmon.wordpress.com/2006/12/07/seek-and-ye-shall-find/#comment-154 "The law of physics is a curious idea to consider. According to evolution scientists the universe could not have “just been created”. It happened when chemicals in space (it never occurred to them to consider: now where did these chemicals come from?) accumulated, causing a big bang that swirled round itself and formed all of life as we know it." Evolution scientists don't try to explain how the earth began. Only how living organisms progressed to their current state. Abiogenesis is the study of how life began, and it has nothing to do with evolution. Just thought I'd share “The law of physics is a curious idea to consider.

But you must use them in the places where they are needed." So true! One way to get more of these voices is to be generally more tuned in to people and their speech tendencies. Most of the time these little verbal things go right over our head. But it's amazing, if we REALLY tune in, there's so much to hear. One person uses the word "suspect" over and over again. One person slurs just slightly. Another has a bit of a nasal twang. Certain accents and dialects won't pronounce certain letters--like the English "h"--they say "'ello," not "hello." Etc. It can be a lot of fun to mess around with voices, and as you say, it can enrich your fiction as well. Mr. Harmon, you wrote: “Having many voices besides your own is a good thing.
