My typing is terrible, but correctable, but my spelling is and always will be bad. Only one of my professors in grad school lowered the garde on one of my papers because of the spelling mistakes...make of that what you will!

I THINK being unable to spell--unless you've had no education--is like being tone-deaf...there's no cure. Am I just pessimistic? It seems to me to have to do with "hearing" words instead of "seeing" them. Who can hear an "ible" from an "able"? A "Ripken" from a "Ripkin"?



Why is this guy speaking English instead of American? Or were they closer together so recently?
