Dear struggling spellers,

I can't speak for any of the other grinches, but since I teach people with dyslexia I have had to learn to channel my grammar grouchies.

To me there's a HUGE difference between anything typed as an ongoing dialogue and something that you're publishing or setting out to the public. That stuff deserves that ancient skill called proofreading. Also, if you can't spell, nowadays it's quite possibly because you were never taught, not because you held it in disdain.

So keep posting... and it doesn't matter what we think anyway. I happen to know that many people find my habits of dressing to violate all kinds of rules I just can't seem to figure out. That doesn't mean I'm going to stop wearing clothes (or stop going out in public).

But actually, what am I doing on line... I'm supposed to be spending my spare work moments developing spelling-improvement software. I'm out of here
