HUMANITAS MAXIMUS ARTICLES

You should read the fine print which follows first...

*Note to my Readers About Viewing Posts: This blog is formatted in such a manner as to cut off certain of the larger graphics that appear in the postings -- especially when those postings have been excerpted from wider-screen or higher-resolution media. Please be patient with me while I work within Google's somewhat stifling Blogger framework. If some graphics are cut off, you might just left-click on them to see if you can get an original source screen with the full graphic shown -- regrettably, this only works some of the time. In the event that any of the wording is cut off, you might change your screen magnification down from 100% to 75%. But don't worry -- the copy very seldom gets cut off. In some cases, if the article has been re-posted from another source (and you sadly can almost never tell you might try clicking on the article title, to get redirected to the original source posting, which will generally be full-sized and easy to read. No matter what...Please don't run out to the local drugstore in the rain and buy some of those overpriced non-prescription "reading glasses" that will make you look like either 1) a Senator in a subcommittee proceeding, or like 2) a substitute teacher from the early 1060's.

And now, intrepid explorers...TO INFINITY! AND BEYOND!

CAPITAL CRIMES!

CAPITAL CRIMES!

Dear Friends:

I use capitalization, boldface, italics, wacky fonts, contrived emoticons, profanity, pictures and multiple colors in order to get attention, and to break up the monotony of my occasionally boring style. People have ostracized me in the past for this practice, but they have gotten accustomed to it and have become undstanding and forgiving. Apparently, there are simply not enough problems associated with managing companies in a challenging economy and a changing culture, and one company actually fired an employee for a Capital Offense -- or, more aptly, for a Capitalization Offense. As it turns out, the terminated employee took this firing to court and won a decision in her favor to return to her job. Huzzah! Aren't there enough impediments to overcome on the way to prosperity and peace without our wasting our precious time looking for more behaviors to categorize as "politically incorrect" or "criminal"? Are we becoming so obsessed with control of others that we are actually discouraging originality, individuality and the creative process? My theory is that if spend too much time on compliance, you will (literally) never have a moment to think or do anything else...Why be so petty?

Woman fired for ALL CAPS email.
A female employee is dismissed for her "confrontational" email style, but fights back and wins. Court's ruling ...

Please give this some thought. I appreciate good manners as well as the next Neanderthal, but is this rush to conformity contributing to the destruction of innovation and free speech? Hmmm... I'd like to know your thoughts.

Faithfully,
