Only 55 people out of 100 can read that? That's pretty amazing!

For the record, it was slow at first, but by the end of the article I was reading it at nearly my normal reading speed.  This is one of the most interesting articles I've ran across in quite some time.  It also explains how you can proof-read a document 10 times and still miss stupid mistakes.

Once or twice.  Then again after I hit submit because that's when I usually see my mistakes.

My favorite was when he submitted a profile for "The Asronaut Farmer".  I mean, come on... the TITLE!?!?!

Asronaut Farmer sounds like an adult title.

Skippos also include switchin gletter sands paces, so it's a little more advanced than it seems.

You can usually tell how pissed he is at you by the amount of Skippos, so that's an added value as well.

I did proof reading for a couple of summers for a publisher some years ago.  It takes a lot of concentration to do it right.  You have to teach yourself not to pay much attention to the actual content, and to concentrate on spelling, grammar, punctuation, etc.  What it's about is almost irrelevant. 

One thing I learned from that, however, was the automatic correction of mistakes as I type.  I still miss a word or blow a comma from time to time, but I very seldom feel a need to run a spell checker.

It's called touch typing, Skip.  You don't have to see the keys to do it!

I use the G15 too 

I love it, especially the macro keys on the left, use them all the time! And with quick macro setting, it's even more useful, has you can create macros for them on the spot, as you need them, without having to go through 25 millions menus! 

Now, if only the LCD was more useful...
