		<description>Nice... I say keep writing like you are.  If you are reaching your target market, then you are doing a great job.

BTW, I love Website Grader - I see you have a score of 94 and a Google Page Rank of 4!  Great job, I aspire to get such great numbers on my website one day.</description>

		<description>It is a sad fact that the the level of reading ability in our country has dropped so much.  I think if you do dumb it down a bit that you will gain more readers.  Or maybe your next post should read:  Attention Egghead Home Buyers...</description>

		<description>Come on, Sylvia, I&#039;ve never &quot;complained&quot;, except maybe about that wave of &quot;spreadsheet&quot; investors we had from California, who never bought anything but asked 100&#039;s of questions, and still wouldn&#039;t accept that Manor, Elgin, etc. were not good places to invest no matter what the spreadsheet said.

		<description>Personally, I enjoy working with all the college professors, engineers and phd&#039;s! One time Steve complained about all the analytical people we were working with and I told him &quot;You created them!&quot; All the stats on our webpage brings clients that want to see all the details and numbers. It&#039;s all part of the process, you can&#039;t have one without the other!</description>

		<description>I&#039;d be happy to dumb your site down for you.  It pegged my level at  &quot;secondary/high school.&quot; .</description>

		<description>I think you&#039;d have to get rid of all your stats. You&#039;re probably getting dinged a lot for having math on this site. 

That said, please don&#039;t.</description>

		<description>ha...ha...ha...  nice blog, Steve.
My wife is a nurse wth a Masters degree who works for the State and is constantly being told she writes at too high a level.  Apparently the TX standard is Sixth grade level - every thing she writes for policy and proceedure needs to be understood by Sixth graders.  
Too stress how low the State&#039;s Sixth grade level is:  my nine year old daughter reads at a sixth grade level.
Are we doing any one a favor by having to Dumb things down for the &quot;General Public?&quot;
