"Sport Pilot" wrote ...
Got cut off some how. Actually I thought I had decided not to send it, and came back and some how hit the enter key. A long time ago I was working for small airline and I was asked to evaluate any letters from the pilots that were sent to flight ops. I was acting as filter for the Director of Flight Ops. Now, as a class, pilots aren't too bright and none of them can spell but when I hit the fourth misspellled word I'd throw the thing in the trash can. "This guy can't know what he's talking about." It was done at a subconscious level. It takes me a while to figure things out but I shared their contempt for spelling in my own writing. It finally dawned on me that if I look down at bad speellers then other people must look down my work. It's human nature and you can"t fight it. If you want your work to be accepted then you have to project an image of intellect. Rich |

Usenet Rule #5: "All posts complaining about spelling must themselves
contain at least one misspeeling". Rich Sorry, I missed that memo. For the record, I disagree with you. I cannot spell, but I'm no idiot. Some people are good at math, others are athletic, and others can spell. Just because it's easy for you doesn't mean it is for others. |

Just because it's easy for you doesn't mean it is for others. True, but _everyone_ can take the time to re-read their post, and everyone can learn basic rules, like their-there, to-too-two. By not doing that, people that can't spell _do_ look like morons. They should run spell check if'in they know they have a speeling problem, also. -- Jim in NC |

Bet I know more about your language (english) than you know of mine (swedish), and I will not call you any bad names if you are not correct when trying to use mine. With bad or good spelling.
