Dumb post to the Stargardts Facebook group

[Albert Sten-Clanton]

The problem with a spellchecker can be that it tells you you've misspelled a
bunch of things that you've spelled correctly.  At least, that's what
happens with Thunderbird on my Linux box.  I'm not a perfect speller, and it
amazes me from time to time which words I forget the spelling of, but the
problem is rare enough that I don't need a spellchecker chirping needlessly
while I'm trying not to write something stupid.  :-)

IMHO!
There is no excuse for misspelling in emails, because most email clients
have the ability to check the spelling of a message before the message is
sent. The only problem with this is that people do not turn this setting on.
My wife tells me that spelling errors in anything I write only demonstrate
how dumb I am.

mispellings is extremely common for blind people, I saw that multiple of
times, for example on muds like miriani.
It makes me mad!
Their screenreaders have the ability to spell things. do they use that? no.
and maybe they even do not know they can spell things.
