no, I'm not going to the mall billy. the word is couch.

most "old folks" can't see the small text well enough to use texting shorthand.

and without a full keyboard, forget about it.

lol

maybe tablet sized phones are the answer.

I don't text at all , but because I have no need for it.

I suspect what will become a much larger problem than spelling is penmanship. The need to physically write things down has diminished greatly in the last 10 years, but nevertheless there are times when you still actually have to write a note.

WALD to those of you that can actually write or even print legibly, some of the handwriting I have seen from many in GEN Y is horrible.
