@ JGX4.....hmm, out of the ~2 billion online, I'd say about 98% of them. Must remember only a very small fraction of these users have English as a 1st language (to give you an idea - only 375 million people in the world have English as their 1st language & many of these would find your help useful. Let alone the other ~ 90% of online users).

Thanks for adding the training. I will certainly benefit from it. English is not my first language and it is always a headache to write my posts perfectly.

I agree with you, JG, that glaring misspellings and grammatical errors are definitely show stoppers when I am trying to read something. Sometimes I need to read a sentence 3 or 4 times to get the author's meaning. If this occurs too frequently, I just stop reading and go on to something else..Because the human brain can read an article that is all misspelled, I guess that it should not bother me, but it does. I believe that a better proofreading policy would help most of these writers. Your information is very good.
