I resemble/resent that remark. In my defense however I would say that this is not a work document. Oh sure I could type this in word, do a spell check then copy and paste it here (hmm would that violate the rules against copy and paste jobs I wonder), but really what is the point. If this were a work document I would be a little more concerned about spelling. As long as the point is made does it really matter if I misspell a word here or there, or there, or there, well you get my point.

As for the Nixon item. I don't even know of any Nixon supporters, although I am sure they are lurking about somewhere.

Actually, you don't resemble that remark at all. And the spelling found in my posts is not perfect either.

But the general sentence structure, complexity of language and frequency and type of spelling errors is always indicative of education levels - not intelligence mind you, only education.

As for Nixon-philes, I've run across a few conservative 'fans' of Nixon on other forums - some of them were otherwise quite rational too!

And just to keep on topic, does the 'end' of quality communication justify the 'means' of thread-jacking?
