responding to the facts of the matter

Some of the early summaries are being overlooked. One way to get to them readily is to click on the "recent posts" link just below your name in the upper-left after you log in. Then look down the page for some of the early posts.

As I indicated in an earlier post, once each summary has received two responses, I'll be chiming in on the work, both the summary itself and possibly the responses. In the meanwhile, you are welcome to read my comments to those who have already received two responses. I have responded to both summaries and responses. Feel free to consider how my comments might apply to your summary or your responses. Keep in mind that we are not looking for perfection here. Summary is not easy and most of you will have had little practice with them (which is why we do them). Also keep in mind you get credit for doing the work, not for how "well" done the work is at this point. Better to do it not so well than to not do it at all, but that doesn't mean you should make a halfhearted effort.
