The Phenomenology of Error blog

The assigned reading had its moments, but for the most part it left me kind of confused. The author made several good points however on what "errors" really should be considered as. Who judges these grammatical errors? The thought I would like to introduce from the piece is what would happen if we wrote without worry of making error? To be free of this could open up different writing styles, thoughts, points, views- its almost endless. This is especially evident in college courses. Professors put so much emphasis on grammatical correctness that it makes it hard for students to say what they would really like to. On the other hand, we need a standard. I truly believe a standard is necessary so we can collect or thoughts on paper with some kind of organization and order. Its nearly impossible to read a paper with so many errors that your focus is on just the errors and not the content. I really enjoyed his comment on dinner table manners and how they are linked to grammatical errors...it actually got a laugh out of me. Overall the reading was really quite challenging for me. I usually can sail right through a reading, but this one left so much up to the reader to interpret. It was practically just several pages of some authors opinion. I've said mine, whats yours?
