It has been very instructive for me to understand how you and likely others could understand the topics better with the mere addition of some small details, such as the time of year that something happened, or of some other details which gives greater context to the situation. Sometimes the author of a work, who has all of the details in their mind, forgets that the audience may not have all of those details. Your feedback has been appreciated so that when this gets to my father, he will hopefully have a letter in front of him which for any average reader leaves little doubt as to the context of a described situation and is clear enough for even a below-average reader to grasp its meaning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color has-large-font-size wp-elements-1fa465b8afbbe3cc4f5552c2dc1acd75\" style=\"color:#1a43d7\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color has-large-font-size wp-elements-c28c877b3953a3030e8c09b9a5701b36\" style=\"color:#5430e9\">Finally, and perhaps most important, some of you have served as my additional memory, reminding me of situations and documentation that I have and that you have which supplemented the letter.
