2 b honest we d0 dat from tim3 to tim3.

Seriously, we have posters who post well regardless of their inability to spell. We are an international community and lots of us are not native English speakers (or writers, for what it's worth). We do comment upon posters who use hax0r language or seem to be writing SMS messages but overall I do hope we let the content of the post, and perhaps the intention of the poster, go first.

I commend you for creating this topic but I was unable to find a single spelling error in your post. And frankly you haven't created a lasting impression as a bad speller in your other posts, either.

How to improve? I don't know. Just learn to read your posts before you post, I guess. Or care to read them *after* you post. I catch myself making mistakes now and then, and while I used to be one of those who just had to go back and change it, now I am a bit more relaxed. A speling mistake doesn't make us bad people. Or?

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.
