Re: Spelling

ljthawk, Good example of how difficult it can be to communicate,
even with the best intentions. In no way did I intend to demean
anyone who is trying to be accurate in anything they do. I share
your respect for those who acquire skills that are not easy to obtain.
My objection is to carelessness, laziness, and the "I don't give a ----"
attitude that is loose in the land. That certainly applies only to a small
minority of the posters here, and obviously not to you.

I agrea 100%.

I also understand the importance of communicating, since I am often one of the challenged.

I'm also sorry if I sort of "snapped" back. I guess sometimes I get a little sensitive to people that criticize my spelling or improper use of grammar.

I have to write everything in "Word" or "Eudora" and then cut &amp; paste. I can't tell you how many times I have to go tot he "Webster" web site because their spell checkers can't figure out what word I intended. Then, it never fails, I end up editing the post 2 or 3 times after I cut &amp; paste.

It is sometimes funny to read e-mails or posts and see where the spell checker kicked in, often replacing the intended word with homonyms or another wrong word that is similar in spelling. I know many of my compositions end up with such errors.

Take care,

L.J.
