If I've caused offence, Eoin, I apologise.  That was not my intent.  I
was simply pointing out that it happens, I was not trying to blame
anyone.

I constantly misspell things;

hte instead of the
marraige instead of marriage
liek intstead of like

The list goes on. 

As for typing being taught in schools, I tend to agree.  It
probably should be.  Mind you, schools seem to rely almost solely on
handouts these days, and as a result, many people's handwriting is not
very legible due to the lack of practise(1).

But that's another rant.

(1) I'm a fine one to talk;  my penmanship is truly awful.
