CHICAGO EDITORS ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS ONLINE --
If The Chicago Manual of Style doesn't tell you all you need to know, ask the editors at their new website.
They post questions and answers they consider useful. While a few questions indicate people don't bother to open their style books or haven't been paying attention to changes in usage in the last 20 years, others bring up interesting issues.
One question comes from a corporate communicator who wants to know whether to fight a grating expression, "visibility into," or accept it as a legitimate term.
We say, "Fight, fight, fight!" To find out what Chicago editors think, visit the site. While you're there, sign up for the updates.
