Spell Check

A humble request to my fellow TPM people, especially those who type/post at warp speed:
Please check your spelling before posting, AT LEAST the spelling of the title of your post.  Even if you have something valuable to say, if you have misspellings in your post's title, many (most?) readers will assume the worst and not bother to read it.

Everybody makes spelling/grammar mistakes, but an excess of these diminishes your chances of communicating anything effectively.

I just wanted to share with anyone reading that I was turned on to a Spell Checker add on for Internet Explorer. Available free download from CNET this is great for any blogsites like these that do not have a built in spell checker.

Just write your comment, then right click anywhere in the text box and choose "check spelling".

Check it out. I love it!

Cool! Many thanks!

Not to get all preachy, but the latest versions of Firefox do this automatically (as you type) and don't require an add on. :)

I well try my beast to chek my spellig.

Hrebendorf - your avatar always cracks me up - thank you!

Butt you can't lust use a smell cheek program because it won't match all you misstates.

Well, win some, loose some!
