Subject:On topic: NPR interview on lack of writing ability in the workplace From:Dick Margulis <margulis -at- fiam -dot- net> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Tue, 03 Dec 2002 08:30:18 -0500
Check today's Morning Edition audio at www.npr.org when it becomes
available. The title of the story may have to do with high school
history papers. According to the interviewee, both Ford Motor Company

because many of them have trouble writing effective reports and memos.
It's worth a listen.
