Proofread, People!!!
As a teacher, one of the things that frustrated me most was students who would turn in papers that were spell-checked, but not proof-read.
There's a big difference. Consider the time that, at my old station, we titled a person as the "Director of Pubic Safety." A spell-checker would never have caught that. As it stands, our director didn't catch it either.
Well, here's another spectacular example... this one from Grinnell, Iowa.
Stumble It!
