I guess the important thing is we remember why we are on these lists to get a little help from each other and whilst today (I do not know about the US), politicians go on and on about how bad it is that people cannot write properly, People such as ourselves who rely on verbal communication are hopefully going to make extra effort to get their messages across in an intelligent and professional manner as for us we have to do more demonstrating to the world if we are going to succeed in our lives. I just don't think we should judge each other by our spelling as long as we get the help and advice we need to use our tools and gadgets. I hope I make sense as I always appreciate the help and the friends I may have made from the lists I belong to.
