Alex,

Feel free to use this lovely piece of correspondence, too.

The username and password he is asking for was emailed to him.

Thanks for addressing this. Please be sure to applaud them for reaching out for help, but these are both examples of things that w

and painstakingly demonstrate. Also, please stress that these two examples are not unusual. Everyone listening to your voice ha

just as ridiculously familiar, asking questions that were answered during class, and/or lacking proper writing conventions.

Thank you!
