The Agony of Poor Spelling - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I most definately agree that topic titles should be grammatically correct. Furthermore, I believe, that a person should take care to ensure proper spelling, when posting a reply.

However, I would like to point out, that the English language is phonetically challenging. For example, Enough (proper spelling) vs. Enuf. Which, in my book, makes the ]occasional[ mis-spelling acceptable.

Birdland, perhaps we Yanks, should teach the Brits how to drive on the RIGHT side of the road, while we're at it.
