Let's get this out their at the top, so as to prevent others from throwing it out first. I'm being a hypocrite. We've already red 14 messages on this topic, all because some of us want people to be more like we are. Here's my two scents
I have a student who learned English as his third language. When he wanted to right the words "what about" on an email he was righting four me, he spelled them "wadabou." When ewe take into consideration such things as accents, learning stiles, and understanding of the English language, ewe realize that knot everyone is on the same page. I cannot even begin to tell ewe the field day MS spell check had with "wadabou." Sew what is my student supposed to dew? Should he stay off of a list like this because he is afraid of his spelling? How can he learn proper spelling and bee encouraged to communicate with English speakers if he gets singled out four his writing? If ewe cant--I mean truly cant--understand someone's message, ask for clarification, offer hints, or just delete. If your biggest problem with puzles, though, is that it irritates ewe, get past it. In the end, its knot that big of a deal. Now, spell check my message, pleas, then go back and read its oddities.

A spell checker or proofreading would quickly and easily cure this. --- Laughter is the best medicine, so look around, find a dose and take it to heart. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.
