Awful....but do we not need a 'Better Writing' column after that dangling modifier?
“While taking the photo”: now I see it.
Michael, reading your terrifying post and the shocking event it describes, I am prompted to ask if have you read Malcolm Gladwell's latest book, Talking to Strangers, in particular the beginning? Also, have you by any chance listened to his podcast entitled Revisionist History, which I find absolutely fascinating?
No, I haven’t, Barnaby, but I do know a couple of his earlier books, and I remember the Implicit Association Test in Blink. I’ll see if I can find the start of Talking to Strangers in Amazon.
