Good article. It reminds me of Chris Rock's rant about Colin Powell being referred to as "well-spoken" a few years back. It's hard to know how to take that one- I GENERALLY give people the benefit of the doubt on saying I am articulate or well-spoken (since I am) and just go by their general attitude and how they treat folks.
