Hello Toastmasters,

In this months issue of Toastmaster magazine on page 7 is a quote that I 
find very interesting.  Said by Alex Trebek who has been the host of 
Jeopardy since 1984 said, "I think it is a sign of respect to our 
viewers that I make the effort to pronounce works correctly and to use 
grammar properly."  This indicates the role of grammarian, which is 
usually considered an unimportant role, is very important.

Thank you,


Hugh Curley
