Maybe two years ago people could get away with considering the net
to be a large dialogue, but now there are THOUSANDS of readers, with
people coming in and going out all the time. They don't know much
about each other except through their notes. If contributers don't
take the time to even look over what they've written for typos, let
alone spelling and grammar mistakes, readers are bound to think of
them as a little sloppy. First impressions, and all that.
