    I can read it but I know that I don't read every word. I've been working on speed reading more and more. I also have a son who writes like a monkey on crack.

    Why can't we just key the first and last letters of each word to save time and virtual ink?

    yep. i can read it. i wonder if the other 45% of the people that can't are native english speakers. it would be harder if they weren't i'm sure.
