John Smart refers to something called Controlled English (as opposed to Simplified English). He defined the difference between the two, but I can't remember exactly what the distinction was. The CommWell Group did a podcast with Smart at http://www.thecomwellgroup.com/podcast/commtalk.htm. He seems very knowledgeable on the topic, so I'm sure there would be some resources available there.

Greetings,

How does one become familiar with Simplified
English? Are there any generic docs, books, articles,
etc.?
