I'd like to read that. Context is very important and the two can over-lap. In the way I'm thinking of context (or one of them) I would consider that to have more to do with understanding each other when we speak or read each other's words. I'll look up the book. For a crash course in tone, have a formidable Texas mother stop you in your tracks with a most chilling tone and say, "don't take that tone with me, young lady (or man)" as you are saying the right words with a flippant or sarcastic edge. Can't get a thing by 'em. Then there was the fourth-grade teacher, Miss Betty Jones, who wouldn't let me go to the restroom till I said "Ma'am" without a trace of the irritation I was most definitely feeling. But I got the only straight A's of my life for that woman. She had a huge nose that turned bright red when she laughed. Very appealing to a kid who liked to make her laugh.. but I digress.. <g> Thanks for the reminder on communicating. I was in need of it.
