You missed my point completely. Sigh.

When you present yourself on a board such as this, all that anyone has to go on is what you write. It so happens grammar, spelling, and sentence structures are factored into how you are perceived.

Where I work, even email that is not "correct" is frowned on.

For example, if I wrote:

“i is an sientist”

You would immediately suspect my education level was not up to par with being said scientist.

i see where you are coming from, but i still hold that this is a blog, not a workplace, not an email to a coworker, not even a post-it note. i value this for sheer conversation without the muddles of profession.
