Word up on this one, Storm. I was very surprised to find I could read that blurb, but like the guy says, we can only do it because we already have the basics. Reading letters from my daughters has also honed these skills for me. :) Seriously, I despair of their spelling ever improving precisely because the world doesn't seem to think it matters. Try messing up on a job application, though, and it's a different story.

Are they kidding?? I have a contact on Flickr who can't spell for sh*t (nope, its not you Hans...) and it annoys me soooo much... Kids these days... they have no idea....tsk

oldie but goodie
