Srory Bard I dindt raelzie tihs was a repsot. :lol:

BTW, the post wasn't directed at anyone at all (ie. boB).

It was just something I stumbled across that was kind of neat.

I hope it doesn't end up causing a heated dabate. :smile:

No worries, Gray, I'm sure it will get psoted again. Seems once a year someone finds that and posts it. :razz:

man the spelling in this post got really bad the farther you read down :lol:

Agreed. Well said Bob.

:smile:

Maybe they should make a program like word perfect. It corrects the mistakes for ya , But that might be a little too lazy.

As an academic tutor, I've read some really poorly-written papers. However, this is understandable since most of my students are from overseas & have only been studying in English for a couple of years. I've also told my elementary & high schoolers that you "play like you practice." So if they don't worry about spelling & using proper grammar when they're doing stuff like posting on forums, then they'll most likely pick up bad habits that will be harder to break when they are doing it for "real" and it'll cost them marks on their assignments & exams & maybe a job in the future (Brad's resume example).

I made a conscious decision to try to not correct people on their spelling errors on these forums, but seriously, some postings are hard to understand. If you have something to say or write, then do it in a form that's clear & understandable. Nobody's asking for perfection, just a little more effort to help get your point across.

JMO,
