  Peter,
  
  I am totally in agreement with you on this. I'm probably a bit older than you and grammar school educated at a time when the English language and everything about it was, as you put it, taught until our ears bled. However, these days even adults of our own era fail to use even basic skills such as full stops, commas, colons and semi colons and capital letters. A sentence is often ignored by not using the proper use of capital letters and spelling is atrocious.
  The thing I don't understand is that with the internet we have the ability to rectify our mistakes, by using spellchecker and the like. I think some people are just too lazy to check, it's such a shame. Personally I find that if a person cannot be bothered to use basic use of our language I tend either not to read their posts or I assume they are not worth reading.
  Sorry if this offends anyone but it's how I feel. Thank you Peter for raising the subject.
