I guess that's a symptom of my posting habits :)

should I ever quit the forum, be sure that I will advise of my intentions to do so :)

sorry :D

I have a random thought .... I was looking for random thoughts on google and look what I found:

Every single time I read a poorly written piece of email, news posting, or other electronic communication, I want to go stomp on the writer's head. I don't care if he has a Ph.D. in physics, computer science, or economics, or if he has an IQ of 180. If people can't communicate without typos and misspellings and sentence fragments, they look like morons, and I feel I should treat them as such. I think that every computer should be equipped with a perfect grammar and style detector, and every time someone types something incomprehensible or stupid, then tries to share it in an electronic communications medium, a massive electric shock would be delivered. You'd get one chance to fix all mistakes, then zappo. I realize I'd probably get a few shocks myself, but it'd be worth it to be able to read email and newsgroups without stumbling over the inane musings of pathetic morons.

Yeah, but it seems biased. I would suggest a translator program so everyone can type their own languages then the program will do the job. Hence, lessening the casualties.

That would be a painful device. :D

Without gross mistakes on grammar and spelling languages would never evolve, and we'd be still talking sanskrit or something.
