Dad's Rules Of Grammar

Deborah explains on Facebook:
50 years ago my dad, retired Navy now tech writer for Motorola, got tired of all the engineers' mistakes. So he typed up this set of rules as a guideline and posted it on their bulletin board. The engineers were very amused and asked for copies. That meant carbon copies. I still have the original. Over the years I've given out repeated copies. This is all rather obvious to repeated interpretation but I wanted to share my dad's earlier version for it's elegant simplicity.
