Hello:

Per heaps if wee all use are spill checkers their wood bee less miss
spellings. Does that make cents? Personally, eye sea know problem width sum
occasional spelling errors providing ewe no what the mess age is.

Eye think it wood be two bad if sum folks stop contributing or don't
contribute when they like two four fear of being criticized. Particularly
those who speak English as a second language. They may knot bee able too
deep end on there spelt checker! End, sum e-male programs halve know spell
checker! Eye hope that any won who ones to right will due sew.

(for those with English as second language, Correct spelling below)

Perhaps if we all use our spell checkers, there would be less misspellings.
Does that make sense? Personally I see no problems with some occasional
spelling errors, providing you know what the message is.

I think it would be too bad if some individual stop contributing or don't
contribute when they like to for fear of being criticized. Particularly
those who speak English as a second language. They may not be able to
depend on their spell checkers! And some spell checkers have no spell
checker. I hope that anyone who wants to write will do so.
