KEMLO!

Excellent, Bravo!  I applaud you for caring to make your posts more
easily read and understood by improving your spelling.

The thing is, when a person posts uses extremely poor spelling and/or
grammar, the focus is on THAT, --it gets NOTICED --and poked fun at,
instead of the focus being on the message you are trying to convey.

You have a lot of interesting and informative remarks and comments
that will be taken a lot more seriously when you take poor spelling
out of the equation.

Right On!!

PS, I'll find paf and send him over to collect his reward...

kemlo-ga,

Thanks!

I'm not sure exactly how my posting helped you with your
spelling...but thanks, just the same.

Thanks so much.

The link to Gurgle tool bar showed me that a spell checker already
existed in safari. I had this computer for three years now and I
didn't know it was there. Now all the words will be spelt correctly
though they may be the wrong word . thank you again, Paf.

Methinks that Kemlo is looking for a probono spelling teacher ;)

Spelling checkers can be a nuisance where jargon, slang, specialized
terms, and proper nouns are concerned. For example, when I ran a
spelling check on this question and its responses, the checker wanted
to turn "kemlo" into my choice of "kilo," "kelp," Elmo," or "cello.
"Pafalafa" caused it to choke, also. It suggested that I consider
"alfalfa" or "paralegal." When it came up against "-ga," it helpfully
suggested that I try "gad," "gag," "gal," or "gap."

Well, -ga me with a spoon.

hi,

Here is my suggestion..

I can't wait for next summer's feel-good movie:

Kemlo and the Bee

"Changing the world... one misspelt word at a time."

Sorry, Meklo

But computers and sepling checkers are not the way forward, they are
actually the major cause of bad sepling.

I recommend that you get a pen and paper and write out ten times:

'I must improve my sepling' 

You can use this same method to improve your geography which I recall
also needs some work:

'Flint ain't in England (yet) it's still in Wales'

Good Luck!

PB

Well if you are still not happy you can drop in a message and I will
help you with windows based spell.. checkers.

'Now all the words will be spelt correctly' ....

Fine words but I bet that I will still find some.

Wanna bet?
