I have seen a trend in informal written communication for poor spelling, shortcuts, and no punctuation (like texting or posting--and this forum is a prime example). I'm not a school teacher or uptight, and I'm not talking about a simple mistake, or occasional abbreviation. I'm talking about communication so poor I can barely understand the statement. Why is it considered cool? And is this a sign that we are lowering the bar of educational standards?
