Hi,

I am not likely to participate in this type of off line discussions but I would like to state agreement with those that promote clear and 'polished' communication.
The minimum one ought to do is to read and correct obvious typing errors in one's own posting before pressing 'send'.

My opinion.... and English was my 6th language only at school...

This is turning into an insult-Covington contest.

I said at an early stage that we should make some allowance for errors
in fast typing. I agree wholeheartedly with someone else's sentiment
that we should make allowance for non-native-speakers' imperfect
English.

I am now being bashed constantly as if I had said the exact opposite, as
well as being accused of "intolerance" and "racism" simply for having
said that clear communication is better than unclear communication.

Does anybody really disagree with me? If so, about what?
