It is funny how some people just try to make trouble online, but haven't a clue about spelling, punctuation, or the english language in general. How can we respect their point of view when they are incapable of expressing a thought in their mother tongue? I'm not referring to anyone in particular, but it really has become commonplace to flaunt one's lack of grammatical skill in journals and forums everywhere. Do we no longer value the language we have been handed from our elders? Will centuries of formal communication really erode to the barest semblance of structure? Is anyone else embarrassed by this?
