I don't think it was a mistake. No one spells a word that badly. He wasn't even close. |

Two famous Americans had comments about spelling:
It is a damn poor mind indeed which can't think of at least two ways to spell any word. - Andrew Jackson
I don't give a damn for a man that can only spell a word one way. - Mark Twain
Still, I try to spell words correctly to avoid looking stupid.
The lingo I dislike isn't really lingo, but style. I hate it when a poster keeps changing fonts and colors and sprinkling little avatars all over their postings instead of just saying what they mean.
BTW, IMHO, it's OK for DW to call me DH.   |
