Letter: Anec vs anti

Published 9 September 2000

From Theo Hultberg

Regarding the note about antidotes and anecdotes in Feedback
(19 August):
the college handbook of Lakeside High School in Seattle, US (where a friend of mine
is studying), wants you to “list five adjectives that describe you and explain
each by using a personal antidote”. I am truly looking forward to the students’
essays on this.
