Well after writing on another post I came to the conclusion that my spelling is getting worse [Eek!] so I thought I would reprint something that I put on the forum long ago that a friend sent me, see how you get on?. [Wink]

I cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdanieg The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer inwaht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Amzanig huh? yaeh and I awlyas thought slpeling was ipmorantt.

Grhaam. [Smile]

That's okay, I'm often embarrassed by my lack of "spell-checking many of my posts before posting, and me being a semi-accomplished writer!

Hi Trevor
I did not notice that I had become a "Jedi Master" I often wondered how that happens although I do feel like Yoda some days, hoping to graduate to a Phenomenal Film Handler like Osi one day proving my spelling does not get any worse.

Yes it works but I`m sure I could feel my eyebrows pulling together and the gears and cogs inside straining more than with usual reading.
Best Mark.

I believe one begins to use spelling mistakes when one is so excited about replying/starting a thread on the forum! and they can't belt it out on the keyboard quick enough!, I know im always excited!

Feel free to use the spell checker on the Forum! After typing up a post, click on the box between "Add Reply" and "Preview Post". A separate window will pop up revealing your post and possible spelling errors. After you've chosen the correct spelling, click on the white box on the lower left side in the spelling window. This will then change the text in the original "Post A Reply" page. If you like what you see, click on "Add Reply".
