And all using the blasted small i ! This fashion seems to have suddenly
started and is spreading like wildfire. It isn't PDAs because these posters use caps for new sentences. It just makes it so much harder to read IMHO. Atlest thats wot i tink...

Which is understandable when you consider the key input of the average phone
and the need to keep the message short. However, when presented with a standard keyboard, using SMS language is inexcusable. There are really good reasons why we should use proper capitalisation and punctuation: it's mainly because the eye is trained to read the shape of words rather than individual letter shapes. Once that pattern is broken by using all Caps or unpunctuated lowercase text or long underscores, reading becomes tiring. So although this is acceptable for the odd SMS message, reading many posts on a NG is not helped by poor writing. -- Terry Farrell - Word MVP http://word.mvps.org/ "Gordon" wrote in message ...

Could not have put it better myself. The shape is really the thing. I find
that as soon as I start reading a missive from one of these 'i' characters I just turn off and go to the next one. "TF" terryfarrell%40%6d%73%6e%2ecom wrote in message ...
