Or do we have a Welsh sailboarder who spells like he talks?

I type like I paddle. Is there a problem with that?

I'm on a 1990 era 16 MHz 80386SX machine with 2400 baud modem and VT100
terminal emulation connected to a FreePort interface on a UNIX (SunOS)
machine. There are still some of these beautifully virus-free access
points to the Internet around which provide simple cheap access to mail,
newsgroups, and text web browsers. The simple text editor (Pico) on
FreePort has a simple spell checker which I don't use because it only
points out likely spelling errors, it doesn't offer to correct them,
making a trip to the dictionary necessary. And that slows me down. If you
can't understand something I type you can always ask for clarification. I
have a copy of Wordperfect with a decent Oxford (not the Webster ones they
use in the US) on this machine which I use when I'm composing email to the
Prime Minister or one of his underlings.
