Thanks for providing my new tagline, Emily!

As you might expect, no one ever asked the professor a single question all semester.

I once ran a volunteer group in which I exhorted people not to make suggestions starting with the words "you should" or "we should" unless they were willing to work on the committee to make their suggestion happen. It cut down on a lot of wasted time.

When I was in LE and I had transferred to a rural area (state agency), a local attorney would put on the same kind of classes, emphasizing 1st, 2nd, 4th and 5th Amendments.

Great example! You wish there were more of this common sense in all local communities.
