I guess my beef about spelling and grammar is that when it's bad, =
especially in printed matter like the Journal or even in the bylaws or =
exam manuals, it makes us look unedjamacated, when one one of the goals =
of PTG is to increase the professional image of the piano technician.   =
On this list, it doesn't matter so much, I guess,   since e-mail is here =
today and deleted tomorrow.   It's just that I've noticed a dramatic =
increase in bad spelling everywhere in recent years, including among =
doctors and other professional types.  At first I thought it was just =
the Gen-Xers and the decline in quality of teaching in public schools, =
or too much emphasis on computers and reliance on spell-checkers instead =
of a solid grounding in the "three R's", but it's becoming ubiquitous of =
late.  But back to pianos.....        --Dave Nereson, Denver Chapter PTG =
