CC as Opposed to BCC

Just a little lesson for the copied impaired. Today at work I sent an email, on which several people were copied so I could keep them in the "loop" as to the status of a project. The person replying apparently didn't understand the others copied for a reason. Because when you reply, I wanted those other people to see it. It saves me the effort of having to resend the same email. This is the proper use of CC aka Carbon Copy. The BCC aka Blind Carbon Copy, is when you don't want the whole world to know every one's email or everyone to reply. You know like when you send out those "funny" jokes that you think everyone wants to read. Oh and by the way...They are not even funny. Actually, I just delete them.
