Yep, English standards have slipped and I see written mistakes that you
would once never see other than if written by a young child. 'Course with
English often the meaning of a word is in the spelling but it is spoken the
same (stationery and stationary). One thing I like to catch is where
somewhere calls an abbreviation an acronym!
