"We really didn’t need yet another excuse to keep American kids illiterate."

So if one doesn't do cursive....they cant read?



I'd rather get an email than this "elegant" chicken scratch.

Why are you so nasty? It's legible--that wouldn't be your standard.

Good grief. It's not like teaching writing is a bad thing. Besides teaching people to be neat, a good handwriting can greatly aid in the learning of language.

There is a warmth and personality in script writing not reflected in the digital purity of email. For example, this letter from Mark Twain to his wife wouldn't be the same in an email.

What’s wrong with it? It’s very readable and certainly not chicken scratch.
