I will reply to an old thread about a problem I am having to discuss my version of the problem, in the hopes that later replies will provide good guidance.I dunno, I've purposely violated the "Responding to a post over 6 mos old" one a couple of times with good results - not because I wanted to necessarily just comment, but because I had some info which could advance the thread (e.g. "Does anyone know...", and there wasn't a fully satisfactory answer). I frequently dig up old threads rather than - and here's what should be a pet peeve - posing a "new" question which has already been thoroughly covered. I've also PM'ed a couple of people on "dead" threads to get more information, and that has been very helpful.

Ahah! And all this time I thought you were all just uneducated. In the future no one will be able to write a coherent sentence without electronic assistance. I almost lost my ability to write cursive. My grandchildren cannot even read cursive.If one is replying via phone and using Google dictate, then paragraphs and punctuation is extra work
It’s also extra work to try to read through the gobbledegook so created. If you wish folks to actually read and follow it, then please write it correctly. It’s not always easy to know what that “word” was supposed to be! Coherent writing is tough to begin with. No good writing is presented in the syntax of disjointed speech (um um um), etc.If one is replying via phone and using Google dictate, then paragraphs and punctuation is extra work
Did you mean "no-good writing is presented with dysjointed speech syntax" or did you mean "good writing is never presented with disjointed speech syntax"?No good writing is presented in the syntax of disjointed speech (um um um), etc.
