Some of the comments last week when we asked people about using the principles of "Second Thoughts"...

I am careful to choose my words wisely, and am known for not sugar coating my communications

Good Reminder

But I should

Mainly on the defense, rarely on the offense

Your column reminds me of an old poster I saw when in college:

"I know you believe you understand what you think I said.  However, I am not sure you realize that what you heard was not what I meant."

Best regards, and keep the columns coming!
