Re: The infamous typing thread, and why it needs to stop.
Sorry about the "john" thing, was not meant to disgrace your name in any way...
I had john in my head and type it out... I apologize if that iffended you. was
never my intention
as for your handicaps, jonas, I dont care, I dont think handicaps (or hiding
being them) make any weight in your debate about you REFUSING TO USE A
SPELLCHECK.
that is what the whole conversation is all about with me and you.
I never debated your skill and knowledge about mechanics, I was the first one
to admit my lack in that feild. the whole thread is all about, you not using a
spellcheck, and you might not beleive that is not a sdhow of non respect to
others but .I am sorry, it is in my eyes, maybe no one else feels this way,
that you dont care enough about anyone else but your little self, as to when
you bother to share information with the list that WE are the ones that have to
figure out what your trying to say, and I don't mean on a intelectual, nor
litterature, nor mechanical level, but on a deciphering what you are trying to
write.
I am sorry, you are still wrong, I grant you are alot more knowledgeable about
mechanics, but what ever handicaps you may have, and beware I am an EXPERT
computer System analyst, and I worked 11 Years in the fields of Handicap
adaptations for people that cannot hear, see nor type. and they ALL used
spellchecks. So you cannot bullshit me on that subject. the fact that you
have/not have a handicap I respect that outmostly, and I am definatly not
trying in any way to put you down below me, if you feel that way, that is a
monkey on your shoulder, not mine.
If you would like I would graciously volunteer time to fix or help you fix your
system so that the spell check is autiomatic on your system, or even perhaps if
you are not currently using one (since you said you are a massage therapetist
the other day) I could ship you a voice activated software and hardware to help
you if you are having keyboard issues. I am not dissing you buddy. I am trying
to reach out.... open your eyes, and read the damn messages properly.
