Non of us are perfect but so long as we get the message over..... there's room for everyone - even my typo's of late (but I do wish my left-hand fingers were actually where I think they are a little more often!!) I think it's an age thing chameeleon. OOPS! silly me. (Nothing so simple I'm afraid - was a little more serious than that)

For reference firefox has spell checker built in but not a grammar checker. You also can't use firefox to upload images. Most of my SL posts are courtesy of firefox because I don't often post images.

I agree with the above posts with regard to spelling - no-one's perfect and a few mistakes and 'typos' will inevitably occur - mistaking the word 'being' for 'been' and 'could have' (could've) for 'could of' for instance, both of which grate on me a bit!!. I think the vast majority of us would agree, though,that we should totally avoid the dreaded 'text' speak that a couple of idiots have tried to infect this site with in the past.
there are 10 types of people in the world. Those that understand ternary, those that don't and those that think this a joke about the binary system.
