Going against the (grumpy) grain: "A new study from California's Stanford University has produced some reassuring news: Young people may not be writing so badly after all, and, in fact, their prose is evolving in some promising new ways. They write more on their own time, their school essays are longer, their voices are more attuned to the people who will read their words. They know better -- at least by university -- than to drop text-speak into a class paper."
