I agree, although I know many folks who are very intelligent, but uneducated, and don't spell well. This would include just about everyone who thinks texting is a form of communication. There is usually an obvious difference between spelling errors, and not caring enough about your correspondents to check your writings prior to posting. Typographical errors will always,sometimes humorously, slip by.
Some research has shown that a typed message contains only 7% of the information a face-to-face discussion contains, so I think it is wise to make certain your posting really says what you intend it to say before you hit "Submit Reply".
