It's a lost cause, dude.

I'm shocked at the illiteracy I see here at times.

Get a statistic wrong, and people will eviscerate you on TOD.

But confuse there/their/they're, its/it's, or be too g****** lazy to use the SHIFT key to properly capitalize, and no one cares.

no one cares.

Because it is trivial to determine the correct meaning, spelling and punctuation rarely matter. OTOH, it is hard to spot an error in a number, so accuracy here is important.

And what about those illiterate cretins who think it cool to mix case and put digits in place of letters, sheesh!
