...authors all brace up their criticisms with an enormous amount of bit-by-bit documentation-nearly all of it gleaned, ironically enough, from the commission's own evidence.

To keep them searching, she bans such overworked words as fine, nice, pretty and good. Mrs. Finley is not alone in trying to teach writing in 17 hard syllables: the National Council of Teachers of English reports that haiku are turning up in classrooms throughout the country.
