MFSA063: Do You See What I Mean

There is a certain sense of permanence and seriousness associated with putting things in writing for others to see. An expectation, too, that what we write will be read and understood. But things do not always turn out as we had hoped. From illegible handwriting to errant postal workers to the odd unscheduled rainstorm, what gets put down in writing does not always get picked up by the other side. Sometimes the meaning is lost, and sometimes the whole message is lost too. If the medium is the message, then it seems good advice to choose the right medium for any message we wish to send.
