We do need to care and also care about those who are not so adept or well trained so in the case of spelling what is wrong with a spellchecker? It's a great tool, use it!
P.S. No person has been intentionally offended in the making of this post.
seejay - no words are being placed in your mouth , I replied directly to your assertion. I am not offended that you disagree with me nor that you hold a different opinion, and i wholeheartedly support your right to do so.

However not everybody agrees with you or wishes to use a spellchecker - this being a free country we do not have to do so, and all that I ask is that you respect our right to hold differing opinions and views as i respect yours.

lets just agree to disagree and leave it at that.
