Re: and then
Professional writers and editors need to either use professional
standards or give up the right to call themselves "professionals."
I'm not sure where you're going with that, Bonnie. Choosing informal diction when it is appropriate to the audience and situation is something professional writers and editors do all the time. If you are suggesting that only formal diction is worthy of being called professional, we'll have to agree to disagree.
