These don't rank even in the top 100 in terms of "things that keep me up at night."
It's pretty annoying when an email or text or IM contains *so much* malformed spew that I have to struggle and re-read several times to transform it into something I can understand, but if I can apply quick mental error correction with a minimum of effort, it's way easier to 'let it go' than it is to gripe about it. I'm sure occasionally people even transmit typos in CW. Forgiveness and tolerance are pretty nice things. (Personally I find ordinary, everyday verbal abuse of the language (where phones aren't even involved) FAR more obnoxious, like using the word "ask" as a noun. But that's my pet peeve :-) ) Nick On 12 September 2013 19:32, Rick Bates <[email protected]> wrote: > Typos or improper spelling or the incorrect words are always inevitable. > Proper grammar errors are yet more likely. > > -- *N6OL* Saying something doesn't make it true. Belief in something doesn't make it real. And if you have to lie to support a position, that position is not worth supporting. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
