 * Hi Garden Gnome Group!
 * This is getting off to a good start. There is a considerable amount of information already in your research piece, which is great; a couple of suggestions, though:


 * 1) The piece should be clearly organized into topics--you should choose a few, such as "Origin," "Development," and "Controversies," or something like that. Then place all of the information into those three topics, and make sure the layout is clear, visually.
 * 2) Be careful about quotes--if you've pasted some information directly in from another source, you must cite that source, and put the pasted information in quotes to avoid plagiarism.

 * Hi Garden Gnome Group,
 * Great poem, Helena--thought-provoking and interesting content. Keep careful track of articles (the/a) and prepositions (for) as you're writing--much of this is idiomatic to English, unfortunately, but I think some of the members of this group were raised in this idiom! :)

 * Hi Garden Gnome Group,
 * I saw you last week, so we won't be meeting today--just a note to let you know I remembered. Also, I contributed a couple of lines to your Renga #1 ...hope you don't mind; it is a wiki after all!
