Somehow I think you are mixing texting input and computer input. Yes, texting
has deteriorated our language. Computer input and proper English (American)
and grammer still exist in many programs.

Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Periods After Abbreviations ?
Yes, please answer this. It is a huge annoyance to me but I never think
about writing to ask about it. Maybe there is a place we can click so that it
won't keep asking that? Thanks Robert.

Does anyone know why a message from the Legacy program states that
"all initials should be followed by a period"? I am now accustomed to
not using periods in abbreviations because it is the new "computerized"
way of doing things. Does anyone really see a problem with any of that?
