Honoring the Wordsmiths of the world

I attended a County Comprehensive Planning Committee yesterday. The committee was reviewing the boring narrative of one of the chapters. It was necessary work that needed to be done. The committee was mainly reviewing the information for accuracy and clarity.

Many times on a committee such as this there is one person who is also a wordsmith. This time it was a retired teacher. They have a tough job. They are itching to correct every bad comma and semicolon but don’t want to be a pain in the butt about it.

I want to take this time to honor all those wordsmiths who do the job that needs to be done in public documents. It’s a dirty job but someone has to do it.

You did it well Waldo. You did it well.
