I feel that guidelines should be rewritten to avoid this kind of meaningless phrasing. Guidelines are supposed to ensure something anyway; having that extra word and clumsy phrasing is less than desirable, in my opinion. This isn't enough of a bother, though, that I think anything -must- be done with it, save for me to pipe up every now and then and try to urge us away from "ensure that..." wording. -- Kynn Bartlett mailto:kynn@hwg.org President, HTML Writers Guild http://www.hwg.org/ AWARE Center Director http://aware.hwg.org/
