I'll move away from Vinegartits's grammar briefly. I can't help notice these comments.
From Vinegartits (Sentence fragment intended):
>I can't figure out how to blow this scan up. You will have do that job. <
>Please send me the name of the AV person who is in charge when the board is in session.<
>The education channel has called me to come in and let it prove that they its personnel did not cut out my appearances.<
From a poster (Anonymous, natch.):
>When you spoke at meeting, no one in audience heard you. Sounds like Education Channel caved in. <
This whole let's-blame-everyone-because-Lee-couldn't-be-heard debacle is laughable. Ziggy outlines at his Abyss blog that Lee as a public speaker is pathetic.
I wager that Lee can't use a microphone or project her voice properly. Microphones aren't magic; many people think that if they are in the same room as this magic ice cream cone, then all is fine. I've seen people muttering into microphones, followed by efforts from the "AV" personnel to turn up the volume. Mostly, the idiots on the mics speak more quietly when they hear their levels increase.
Surely a teacher with experience of 28 years could project her voice clearly enough.
It wouldn't matter when the AV person tells Lee that she can't use a microphone for peanuts; she's already got her back up. The AV person could start talking about gain structure, feedback, cardoid patterns, condenser mics, omnidirectional/unidirectional microphones, or a host of other topics and it still wouldn't matter, because this vindictive bitch has already worked out that it couldn't have been her fault.
My thought for the day: If you've got something important for people to read, make it readable. If you've got something important for people to hear, make it audible.
We've seen how apathetic Vinegartits is towards increasing the size of some scanned text for people to read. Surely she could be similarly apathetic towards mastering the art of how to use a microphone for people to hear. Gee, she's too apathetic to master the homophones "to" and "too"!
