I remember when I was in grade school how well I would spell and I enjoyed being in spelling bees. As an adult I was a secretary in private and state businesses. Many gentlemen I worked for looked good when they wrote due to the proficiency of a good secretary. When spell check came along, it not only assisted me in typing correctly spelled words, but increased the grammatical errors that one makes. Thank you for allowing me to share. It is fun reading your articles Melissa. You make them very interesting to the public instead of having to read all about the horrible incidents that take place in our community.

I think you meant “glaring errors,” not “glaring editors.” But maybe Jeff is glaring at you now after that glaring error.
