As long as I can understand it, I don't care about spelling mistakes. A technical text-book on the other hand should have a 100% correctness about it, otherwise technical details become blurred.
Here's one for you.
I are going to sleep. |
When one person suffers from a delusion it is called insanity.
When many people suffer from a delusion it is called religion. |

Like my semicolon, which i disagree is a typo, your dashes, seem to be typos, or useless and out of place.

Then you have a pretty poor command of the English language.
Your semicolon should have been a comma.
Your 'i' should be in upper case.
A dash with a space on either side is in common usage and to most people is a perfectly acceptable alternative to a semicolon, or an alternative to brackets if used twice in the middle of a sentence.
Does not compute. I say 'i' because it is not at the beginning of a sentence, so i feel i do not have to capitalize it, i know it is not proper but i have my own rules. Just as you probably have yours. I do not say chicken salad without spelling it 'Chicken Salad! Yes!'
I think i will leave this topic be as i will not reply or "Quote" any longer. |
If you don't have the time to do it right, when will you have the time to do it over? |

Why do people create topics like this?
I have found lots of wonderful information here.
If you really want information, you look past the language errors.
Yerboogieman, what do you think will happen if everybody on the road have their own rules? |

It seems they do, as i think most other drivers are retarded as most don't know what they are doing. |
