How important is spelling and grammar. I remember spelling test from kindergarten and I also remember that I was never good at them just as I continue to be a poor speller as well as grammar. I don’t truly feel that both are very important as long as my thoughts and ideas are not lost with my errors.

Another way I look at is that I am much more of a speaker than I am writer or reader that, I write as if I were speaking and while I am speaking I don’t pay attention to which there I am using and so when I write I type which ever one pops in my mind. I don’t always catch my error because when I proof read my righting I read it allowed. See my problem?

Here is an [unsigned] article which is making the e-mail circuit. It tries to prove that all of us read with a whole word approach.

Copyrighting

Who ever knows what copyrighting covers? People talk about how things are copyrighted but, do they truly know what it means for something to be copyrighted ? The truth is most people do not know what is or can be copyrighted. The hardest part is deciding what is or is not copyrighted and what are the rules for dealing with material that are copyrighted, That multiple times throughout history people have been accused and convicted of breaking copyright laws this, is because most people do not know them or how they work, that as long as people don't know or understand the laws they will continue to break them. The best thing that i have found to explain the copyright laws is an Internet sit that lists out what can be copyrighted and how the items are protected the website is http://www.copyright.gov/circus/circl.pdf
