[OSList] metaphorum: a clean language one-day online gathering

[Michael Herman via OSList]

that's pretty much the point of clean language, harrison... letting the
native speaker(s) tell their story.

or, said another way, it's the practice of finding one more thing to not
say.

it ain't the magic invitation bullet, but it is an interesting view.
