    I went on a rant about his spelling. I think I said something about 13 year-olds posting better then him, Another mini rant about the capitalization of his I's, yada yada. You get the drift.

    Aye, my first impulse was to smack as well, but the followup post was legible, so either the poster has legitimate issues and really took the time out to make it readable the second go round, or they'll do it again, at which point you're all systems go for the smackdown

    At my computer. Obviously.
    Re: ow well

    No offense intended, but while you can't spell, a word processing spell checker can. At least significantly better than you are currently. Maybe you should try running your post through a spell checker first. I know it fixes my mistakes.

    Google's tool-bar includes one. I use Firefox's spell checker myself.

    I have a touch of it as well from my mom's side of the family. It's not horrible though, I just simply transpose things like most folks with it do: 6 for 9's, I for l's (thats i and L, 1 sometimes) u and v, m and n occasionally. And then I constantly place one letter/number before the one I meant it to go after.

    the numbers 67 and 76 screw me up speaking them. I always say the oppisite of what I mean for some _*(# reason, and I won't catch it unless I write it down.

    It's not affected me so bad that I make horrid typos, provided I know how to spell the words beforehand.
