Dear Anonymous:

I totally understand that you would like me to lighten up on the rules; the reason they are so strict is to ensure that class time is used for learning and not other extraneous things.

By the way, be courageous: Use your real name! Don't be cowardly. I appreciate the emoticon, though, because it shows that you have some good humor about your comment.
