Re: The infamous typing thread, and why it needs to stop.



So lemme see: your logic is if I cant use filtering methods to not read
email, I shouldnąt be using email.  But you defend a guy who cant use spell
check methods to correct his spelling, but apparently he has every right to
continue.  Does that make sense to you?
