Default Let's hear it for capital I

My brain works *much* faster than my fingers do. And even tho I watch my
hands when I type, I still type funny.

When I proofread (and I try to proofread everything I write) I sometimes
find the oddest things. Occasionally it seems my brain is rushing so far
ahead of my fingers that I type a word that sounds something like the one
I
was aiming for but has an entirely different meaning.

I blame it on laziness. No one cares if something is spelled right. It's

one
thing to have an occasional typo but for heaven's sake! Spell check will
catch most problems. (I say most because sometimes I type a bit too fast

for
my brain to actually read what I wrote and then hit that "ignore" button
instead of "change".)

where I work...I interpret spelling mistakes or have to track down

You just accept it or you are going to go crazy stressing over it.....

So many posters appear to be too lazy to use the capital I from time
to time; some don't use it at all. I realise that sending it from a
portable device might be ponderous, but many posters are apparently
on a normal keyboard. How much effort does it take to hold down Caps
now and then? And this in exchange for greater readability. Should
we start a movement to protect an endangered species?
