Edyburn, Editor, Learning Disabilities Quarterly P.O. Box 40303 Overland Park, KS 66204 Dear Dr. Edyburn: I was surprised to see my name (or any others, for that matter) cited in the lead article by Scruggs and Mastropieri (LDQ LDQ Learning Disabilities Quarterly LDQ Laboratory Data Quality LDQ Local Delivery Queue LDQ Load Quadword LDQ Load Queue , Summer 2002, 25, 3, 162). The straw man paper mentioned in this article was the working draft of an informational brief prepared by a committee comprised of representatives from the 2002 LD Roundtable Initiative, a collaborative effort among ten organizations that represent children served through the federal Individuals with Disabilities Education Act  Some statements may be disputed, incorrect, , biased or otherwise objectionable. NCLD National Center for Law and Deafness hosted this initiative for the Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP OSEP Office of Special Education Programs OSEP Office of Scientific and Engineering Personnel (National Research Council) OSEP Office of Security and Emergency Preparedness OSEP Operations Standardization Evaluation Program ), no individual or organizational authorship attribution was intended for any part of the report. The final version of this `strawman' paper, attached as an exhibit to the report to OSEP, is titled Specific Learning Disabilities: Finding Common Ground. It can be found, along with the Roundtable's LD Policy Recommendations, at www.LD.or/commonground. Congratulations on still another outstanding volume of LDQ. Sincerely, Sheldon H.
