Open Letter to EPCOT Center

  1. Hello Sir or Madame-

    It's an interesting idea, and Lightfoot is worthy of this kind of recognition. However, I have been to the Canada pavillion at EPCOT, and the tallest building would be much shorter than 100 feet. They probably would'nt build a statue that would tower over the buildings. Good idea though.

  2. Oh, I love Gordon Lightfoot! One of my favorite songs is "If You Could Read My Mind," but he has many other wonderful songs as well, like "Carefree Highway." However, one of the most boring songs in the world is "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald," and, believe me, I mean no disrespect to the people who tragically perished in that wreck...God rest their souls. Also, I've alway found the sound of "Sundown" a little creepy. I don't know why. But Mr. Lightfoot was the writer of two of my favorite Peter, Paul, and Mary songs, "For Lovin' Me" and "Early Morning Rain." I thought I would mention this, since the great Mary Travers recently passed away. So, I guess all this is to say that Mr. Lightfoot well deserves a giant statue in his honor!

    Who are Peter, Paul, and Mary?

    Le Cram thinks large statue is a nice tribute. Don't you...

    Three dot ellipses don't really pack a punch like 4-5 dot ellipses. what do you Le Cram readers think...?

    Le Cram would like to know...

    How do you ellipse? It was brought to Le Cram's attention by Le Cram commenter E.B. White that when it comes to ellipses, anything goes! Three dots or ten, there are no rules! So let's have fun and ellipse everyone! .......

  7. As a writing teacher, I must protest unbridled ellipses gone wild. Three dots are the norm for ellipses, and they are usually used to indicate that something has been left out of the original. Or it's used, incorrectly, to indicate a short pause or break in thinking. Or it's used, also incorrectly, to indicate something that's suggestive or to indicate a moment of reflection. When ellipses appear at the end of sentences, then you have three dots, plus the closing period, thus, four dots.
