Adapt I wasn't necessarily expecting you to use it word for word but to adapt it to the phraseology of the preceding and subsequent sentences.
AllegroTrans Jan 25, 2012:
Asker I think your suggestion woirks. Penny's suggestion worries me a little, because she has introduced the first person plural. That would only work if the whole document is changed to that form.
