We're going to talk about the third question, and even more importantly about the fourth. What you should do in preparation for Thursday's class is to read as much as you can of the discussion of those two questions on the forum, and choose one posting in each question (not your own), that you think it would be important to talk about. Choose one that you think raises questions about how the writer composed, and how the readers read, the article.

When you've chosen one, add a Reply to it which uses the subject line "Let's talk" and, in the body of the posting, say in a sentence (or two) why you think we should talk about it. Do this before noon on Thursday. I'll choose some to discuss during class.
