Interesting. Are you really that literal-minded? Since you put quotes around what you claimed to have said, yes. How am I supposed to interpret "rhetoric has no place in a classroom"? Main Entry: rhet·o·ric Pronunciation: 're-t&-rik Function: noun 1 : the art of speaking or writing effectively: as a : the study of principles and rules of composition formulated by critics of ancient times b : the study of writing or speaking as a means of communication or persuasion 2 a : skill in the effective use of speech b : a type or mode of language or speech; also : insincere or grandiloquent language 3 : verbal communication You're telling me that effective speaking has no place in the classroom. That's a unique perspective! jttmab
