I have an answer for those who were not taught English grammar. Visit http://www.egumpp.com for a program that works. I promise.

Well how do you indicate laughter? "i am laughing out loud?" But I agree with the lack of grammar skills; it's amazing how few people know how to really write.

IM helped me learn to type... Now I can pump out 70wpm and down a coke at the same time--a darn good skill. I know to not use '2' in place of to or too. Most people do. Sadly, most people just use 'to'. That extra 'o' is probably just for looks right? Don't get me started on there/their/they're. What were people thinking making two words and a contraction sound identical? We live in a speed driven world. Expect only more abbr.

And the hits keep coming... Thanks for pointing this article out. Lately all my rants seem to be about the sorry state of the English language. This just adds more fuel to the fire.

thx again.
