My New Jersey American needs another button: HARD TO READ. I have asked what is wrong with a particular node and received the answer, "your writing is hard to read." It has something to do with the way I construct sentences, I think, but I'm not sure. Anyway, it would be nice if I could get some feedback on this. Perhaps a generic STYLE button could msg feedback. Or maybe people should just feel free to make suggestions with msg's. I have benefited from msg's and have changed my nodes when I thought the suggestions made sense. Perhaps we could add some shiny javascript buttons to our sigs to make this easy?

msg me with suggestions for this node
It should work perfectly the first time! - toma
