Adam,

Awesome paper! Russ is right, as he is about most things. Your writing is better than that of most lawyers I know, and I know a lot of them because I am a lawyer. I wish that I had had your courage and self-esteem when I was your age! My parents, however, were not supportive, and it took me quite a while to accept myself as a stutterer. Now, I am a trial lawyer for the federal government at the United States Department of Justice. It coan be done, as you are learning at Youth Court. As you may or may not know, President Bush has recently nominated a stuttering prosecutor, Miguel Estrada, to what many believe is the country's second highest court, the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, and many believe that Bush will nominate him for the Supreme Court some day. You are an inspiration for many, Adam. Keep up the great work!
