I like it.<\/p>\n<p>My professor has taught me that it is more important to get your point across well than to camouflage your argument with fancy words. So that is what I have started to do, write to an audience like I am talking to my peers. It is a simple form of communication and I feel \u00a0like I can get my point across better because it is how I normally talk.
