I suspect there are manuals for everything. If I were to resume my interest in the rebuilding of motorcycle engines, it would be pretty easy to find, online or otherwise, lots of guidance for “How to do it.” Almost anything one wants to accomplish is well documented. We are an information-rich world now. No excuse not to know.
I am mentioning this because I neglected to consult the “How To” manual, or perhaps better described as the “How to Bible” for writing. E.B.White I am not, although I was given the White and Strunk “Elements of Style” by my aunt when I launched my college fiasco career of long ago. Many of the Elements went unnoticed. Joe Gelarden would not have my back on this one!
Dear Editor: I was disappointed to read that Joe Gelarden, in his "Ramblings" column in the May 20 edition, apparently dismisses the move to preserve the environmental integrity of the Gulf of Maine from industrialized exploitation by a foreign-held.
