What many people don't realize is with the advent of new technology and auto correct, many of the mistakes we may see could possibly be as a result of this.

Okay, you can now flame me.

Flaggship., why would you read something that can't be compressed?

First to catch it wins the prize.  Perhaps when more than 5 letters are involved or common usage and sir names, it slips by the casual eye. Or as Wayne illustrated - the eye can comprehend the compressible, decompressed etc. But what is incomprehensible to me is this score. Halftime show - so far I get it, score is a bit surprising.

I enjoy when someone complains their 'breaks' don't work. Or when they turn something 'of.' Spell check doesn't red-line it because they are words, just not the 'write wons.'
