I assume you are asking me for my bank account information so that you can transfer the millions of dollars from my dead relative?  At least that is what first comes to my head when I see emails typed that bad.

You sure you didn't get that message from someone in Naval Intelligence?

I too have noticed that more and more people are being very lax on how they type (spelling, grammar, etc..).

I'm not an English major but I do try my best even when I am behind a monitor.

Another thing that is starting to get to me, using "computer slang":

I know somebody who types like that. "Your" and "you're" interchangeable, little punctuation except for ....... , no capitalization, etc.

I wonder if people realize how poorly such a writing style reflects on them and their putative "education"?

I'm with you on this.  I try, but am not very good.  Luckily we have fistful to point out our mistakes.  Wink

You know, I'm one of those few people that it is actually physically painful for me to try to read something like that.   Or the "l33t" speak that some "h4x0rz" want to use.  I seriously want to smack people who type/write in this manner.
