Hey Buz, can you do me a favor?
Drop the
et al!
Please. Especially since I see you have a tendency to use it incorrectly. Case in point--"etc." should be used in the statement:
repeated drunk driving et al
. Generally, "et al" is used for shortening the list of authors.
For ex: Abe, Jack, and Lisa are the authors. Lisa is the main author.
ex: Lisa, et al.
Also, it's generally only used in citations.
So, can you please stop using et al incorrectly, inappropriately, or just not use it at all?
p.s. "et al" means "and others"
