Choose better words.THIS is in response to Xerxes' letter about how "morons" should be given more consideration and responsibility (GDN GDN Garden (postal suffix) GDN Gdansk, Poland - Rebiechowo (Airport Code) GDN Global Data Network GDN Goods Dispatch Note GDN Global Disaster Network (Yahoo group) , January 18). I wish you wouldn't use the word moron mo·ron n. A person of mild mental retardation having a mental age of from 7 to 12 years and generally having communication and social skills enabling some degree of academic or vocational education. , as I am sure you did not know the people involved. I am a teacher of someone who died in that crash. He was a wonderful boy, and is deeply missed at the school and by his family. Have a heart at least and show some sympathy. What if your 17-year-old son died in a car accident. Would you want someone to call your friend a moron or your son a moron in this situation? No one involved in this accident is a moron. The only moron here is Xerxes, for not showing some sympathy towards a horrific hor·rif·ic adj. Causing horror; terrifying. [Latin horrificus : horr  re, to tremble + -ficus, -fic. accident. Please choose your words carefully next time please.
