Good writing stems from a sound thought process. Idiotic writing comes
from
idiotic thinking (logic).

We need to make the distinction between faulty *writing* and faulty
*logic.* Something can be very well written and still be totally
illogical.

On the other hand, I did have a professor back in library school who
believed your ability to use good grammar and such was a direct
reflection of your ability to think clearly.
