Thank you!

Awisha, do you happen to know the website that was being advertised? Moderator

That's us! Moderator

Since that is using the board for advertisement purposes, we would prefer that members not provide links in their online signatures. When we see those, we ask members to remove them. Please do not use a product for your image. Moderator

The site is experiencing some temporary hosting issues--we hope to have them resolved shortly. Moderator

Please, keep it kind. Most of you are doing a good job at this. Moderator

The chart does not list every possible option for Rhetoric--just a few sample paths. Anthony Weston's book is still recommended in the third edition of TWTM. Moderator

Folks, we apologize for the annoyance. We're looking into this and will try to get it resolved shortly. Moderator

There's been way too much snark and spleen on this thread. If you want to start new threads that FOLLOW BOARD RULES and pick up some of the themes, go ahead. The rest of you should probably get some sleep. Moderator

We are not technically able to live stream at this time...but we'll keep you updated about the possibility of watching the archived lectures! Moderator

Because many of you are unable to carry a civilized discussion, the thread is closed. In addition, the moderators do not appreciate being accused of "tolerating" the bad behavior. We only see threads when people report them. Thanks to the huge amount of conversation on the board, we are unable to read every thread. The uncivil tone on this thread isn't our fault. It's the fault of particular members. Yes, this is a Mommy post. Knock it off. Moderator

This thread is not going anywhere useful. Be finished now. Moderator

For clarification, Peace Hill Press has no control over The Well-Trained Mind's editions, and no permission to offer upgrades to previous buyers--TWTM is published by W. W. Norton, which owns the copyrights. We just have the ability to ask SWB directly what is planned, since she works here. :001_smile: Although there will probably be a fourth edition in the next few years, she and Jessie do not have one currently in the works. Moderator

Yael, that's a good point. I will pass it along!! Moderator

Don't forget these! http://welltrainedmind.com/mini-conferences-with-susan-wise-bauer-and-jim-weiss/ The mini-conferences hope to expand slowly with more speakers and locations plus vending tables. Moderator

PEOPLE: This is hard. Please remember to be kind and graceful. Not to make blanket statements. Not to attack. To stay on issue. It is our constant effort to make this forum a place where disagreement can happen with civility and grace. Help us out with this. SWB, logging in as Moderator because everyone else is off tonight.

Cannot reproduce problem...

BOARD RULE REMINDER. Don't insist on the last word Some disagreements will result in a draw. Be willing to let a thread end on someone ELSE'S opinion. "Last words" which have no purpose other than to assert that, after all, you're REALLY right, will be deleted. Anyway, this is a zombie thread...it was resurrected by a spammer, now deleted. So now we will shoot it in the head. Moderator EDITED TO ADD: That was a Walking Dead reference. We were under the impression that a board that talks so much about the Walking Dead would know how zombies have to be dispatched. We appear to have been mistaken in this. Our apologies.

It's back! Weird technical glitch. Moderator

Minor glitch--it's back! Moderator

Asked and answered. On both counts. Moderator

Really, people. You ought to be able to disagree, and even disagree strongly, without resorting to insults, name calling, and personal attacks. Behave. Moderator

We'll check with OtherJohn and let you know!! Moderator
