For 6 months or so, spelling and punctuation have rapidly gone down the tubes - That's the reason for repeating this post.

Here we go again
Please, PLEASE, PLEASE proof-read your posts, looking for errors in spelling and punctuation.
Don't rely on 'Auto-corrupt' to correct YOUR mistakes.
We can only understand what is printed on 'the page'. We can't tell any voice inflections, or sarcasm,
in a statement as we can't HEAR the intended use by the author.
Use a 'space', 'comma' or 'period' to help separate thoughts - and meanings.
Example; What is the difference between the two statements
Is Grand Ma going to be eaten or is she being asked a question
I'm mentioning this again as in the past 6 months, or so, the cognitive writing has
degraded. Missing words in sentences - leading the reader to question what the
original intent of the statement is/was. We, the readers, can't fully understand
what the meaning truly is. Some of the posts indicate that an A.I. or Chat-Bot is
actually writing the post, not a real person.
PLEASE proof-read your posts.crfriend wrote:The canonical guide to this sort of madness is Lynne Truss' wonderful tome Eats, Shoots, & Leaves

Make sure your posts may be understood by anyone who reads them.
I'll go back under my rock now -
