What do those initials mean?

[Chas]

Ya know... terrible punctuation, spelling, and book-long run-on sentences have been one of my pet peeves for a long time. Is it really that difficult to use grade school grammar? And all the acronyms... Is it really so time consuming to type out "too" instead of using the number 2?

I agree 100%.

We only have the written word.

If we are lucky; if we are very, very lucky, we get to meet other XMarkers once or twice a year. Some of us will never meet another XMarker in our whole lives.

So all we have is the written word. We all learned it in school, so why are we so quick to forget it? I think we should all up our game. Stop relying on smilies and use a spell checker.
