This is one situation where I tend to agree more with Dr. Cummings. I have seen Dr. Cummings and his wife speak. There are things that I don't agree with their philosophy - like they think that Tourette syndrome can be eradicated in one generation if people with the disorder would stop having children. Yet I was very critical when a certain woman who had several Tourette children kept on producing more children. The armed services will not recruit a person who took anti- depressants and ADD/ADHD medications past age 12. They have been stuck with having to pay disability claims on too many soldiers with these afflictions. Genetic research has come a long way since Watson and Crick - yet researchers have barely scratched the surface of the genetic code. They are able to identify many genetic afflictions but they are a long way from cureing the genetic disorders. I look at DNA as a huge algorithm. Even though progress has been made, it will be many generations before man can rewrite genetic code and cure many of these disorders. Some of the people I have mentioned will live shorter lives due to alcoholism, drug abuse, and taking risk. |

Please let me have your postal address and I will send you a copy of the Oxford English Dictionary which I'm sure you will find invaluable. Loz Who really cares. I am not so obsessivly looped that I need to do a spell check on everything I write. If you don't have anything better to do than worry about my spelling, then I would wonder how you manage the rest of your life. Writing with correct spelling and grammar demonstrates some respect for your intended readership. Using poor spelling and grammar often makes it hard to understand the meaning of a writer, which shows a lack of respect for your readers. If you do not care about your words, why should anyone else? I would suggest that spelling of the quality used in your posts indicates that you appear to have nothing but contempt for your readers coupled with little or no interest in what you are writing. By your sloppy use of English, you are demonstrating what modern slang might term a `bad attitude'; this character flaw is further indicated by your violently insulting response to Loz's mild sarcasm. One might further suggest that spelling of the level of awfulness that you have demonstrated can only be excused if you suffer from a specific learning disability such as dyslexia. The patterns of your spelling mistakes are, however, rather more characteristic of ignorance due to poor education and lack of interest. So you see, your insultingly bad English and aggressive attitude towards criticism harm your reputation. Loz was in effect trying to give you some good advice on how to present yourself in a fashion that does not cause people to categorise you as a petulant ignoramus.
