Introduction Compact

Are you a dyslexic?

Would you admit it if you were?

Are the people who make rude remarks about spelling and grammar errors really so much holeyer than poor spellers? Are they smarter?

I have known many who have perfect grammar, spelling, and punctuation but have never had an original thought.

I see dyslexia frequently used as an insult on SI, and even more frequently poor spelling used as a sign of stupidity. That is why I never post, even if I have innovative ideas, theories, or information.

Yes I have dyslexia.

Bad spelling is welcome. Please post your thoughts.
