Do you agree that we should change the English language so we could spell words as they sound. The article link is below, so you can read if you don't get what I'm saying. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060705/ap_on_re_us/simpl_wurdz

I, myself, disagree because it'd be hard for adults and people who already know how to spell/read to convert to this new way of our language. So, any thoughts, arguments, agreements, or debates about this?

I always thought the end punctuation went inside the quotes no matter what, but lately I've been seeing things like... "word"? or "word". Does the punctuation only go inside of the quotes if it's part of what is being quoted? I thought the period was always inside.

Yes, I know this is lame, haha.

I have diclxyica and I find no one really knows what it means. So they say things like (Learn how to spell) witch 90% of diclxyic's can't do.
So I just want to see how may people know what it is and if they know how many differnt forms of diclxyica there is. (By the way diclxyica is more then like-ly spelled wrong)

My professor has assigned me an essay in which I must persuade my reader that television violence leads to aggressive and violent tendencies and behavior in today’s youth. To support my thesis I have decided to make mention about recent school shootings, as many “experts” blame the media for teenagers’ decisions to carry and use guns to resolve their problems. However, I do not desire to make it seem that the media is the only reason that today’s youth is evolving such behavior, I want to know what other people think about the whole thing. Do you agree that the media is to blame or do you think and believe that there is some other factor that has yet to be explored?

This is he's childhood. He's mother took him away when he was 7 taking him away from his friends and family to a complete different country.
He's father left him before he was boarn, he has never seen neither a picture of him. He was kind of sexually molested by a bigger kid and that left him with fear of someone touching him again for all his life, he even feared he's own mother could do that. In the new country he was treated with racism and other kids went as far as crying if they had to sit by him. When he's friends were mean to him he gived them money so that they would like him again, they also used to force him to blaspheme God in exchange of friendship. Now this dude is 20, i know him, he dosen't talk a lot, he's kind of strange and always wants to be around little girls, he has a strange look in his eyes but he generally wears dark sun glasses, he hasen't got much friends and he works in building constructions, he failed his grade. Why dosen't he behaves like other people?

This is simply to ask the question of why there is such a need to continually dumb down everything that we do. I mean everything from schools to the various advertising mediums, etc. This is in reference to the Simplified Spelling Society and others that think like them.
