CD,if it's written on here then chances are it isn't by students or teachers,so lack of grammar in this instance would suggest to me 'the old school' failed some people who became ebay sellers or forum dwellers

Reading and writing properly nowadays depends on who your communicating with if my kids are anything to go by as they seem to be perfect when need to and write in alien shorthand to each other.

The actual exercise of doing so (writing proper) however takes time and that has it's own rewards,perhaps that is the fault these days 'nobody has time to take time ?'
