You are taking the position that those violators of the English or
whatever language you are referring to, have the capacity to properly
spell a word to begin with. I would never make such an assumption
myself, considering that a large percentage of those perpetuators of
bad grammar are now or former AOL'ers or Googlers. They just cannot
grok normal grammar and spelling skills. It has got to make you proud
of our great learning institutions.
