And let's face it, "Neopleon" is simply funny. I didn't know there was an Emperor Pleon, much less his son Neopleon who went to Egypt.
apple products 'learn' common mispellings and puts them into memory. my PC's run an older Internet explorer to comply with my billing software needs. So no spell check.
Also it give people with weaker arguements something legit to buzz in about when they are failing in every other way.
... and yet when you were corrected by several people regarding "artical"/article, you steadfastly insisted that you were using a legitimate variation on the word, in order to avoid admitting error -- which anyone with elementary reading-comprehension skills would recognize is the crux of my point.
I point and laugh at you because of your spelling not because you're dyslexic, or unable to keep mispellings out of your Apple's memory, but because you're too proud to admit error, and thus unable to get any nearer any truth, large or small.
You see, without the ability to say "I was wrong", at one level or another, you cannot learn.
This is why anything you say is suspect, and that is my point here.
Also: "artical"

I dunno, do you have an Amiga? Maybe a VIC-20? Drich clearly doesn't run modern equipment, you know, with spellcheck and whatnot.
