[Dysphagia] Swalowing workshop



 ...and as there is redundancy in communication, there can be no overlooking
it ("reading between the lines), either.  It has been said that the written
word carries much more meaning than any word ever spoken.

Todd,

I am deeply concerned when anyone on a listserv suggests that they are
making assumptions based upon "reading between the lines" of someone else's
email.  We all know the inherent risks that occur in written correspondence
where we have no feedback from body language,  
tone of voice etc.   It is well know that people are more likely to  
give meaning or insert impressions based on their own beliefs and issues
rather than what the other person is actually saying.  This is one of the
big challenges of e-mail communication and "reading between the lines" is a
sure-fire prescription for misinterpretation and antagonism.

Suzanne

Staci,

For any of us who have read the posts here over the past years, it seems
apparent that this "original comment" was not out of character.  I am
convinced that there is a self-serving motivation which leads to the obvious
behaviors exhibited.  Honestly, it saddens me.  Unlike ASHA's division 13
listserve, this service seems blatantly pointed at certain individual's
personal character.  If you read between the lines, the extrapolation of
original intent is obvious. It is wise to uplift and promote...to do
otherwise is selfish and destructive.  Peace and self-growth are paramount.
