Re: [CHICKENS-101] Re: Language ( OT )

Pete and Mike,
I couldn't have said it better myself. I have to grit my teeth when I see so many spelling and grammatical errors in the world today. It just seems like no one cares anymore. You know one of the things that drives me the most crazy?? Using 's to make things plural. Aaarrrrrgggghhhh!! I see that EVERY day, even on business signs and in professional letters. But, oh well, we're only human. I'm sure I'll get knocked of my high horse as soon as someone discovers an error/typo in this post!!

Mike ... it's a sign of the times... a rather depressing one at best

:-( The written word has gone the way of cave paintings and Sanskrit

.... today it's all compressed for txt msg ... faster the better.

Wonder how long before students take classes via IPhone and just text

teachers.
