[quote=Anonymous] I have a theory about why the quality of writing has gone down. I have a bright teenager that is incredibly well-informed regarding national and international events, politics and history. He reads all day long. However, the vast majority of his reading is on the internet. When I was his age, I read constantly, as well, but I was reading books written by great authors. I would have loved to have the immediate access to information that he has, but the quality of the writing that he is reading on a daily basis is just not the same. My kid can produce a decent paper, but he hasn’t developed an “ear” for a well-turned phrase.[/quote]
