Cheri,
Interesting comments about first impressions. It scares me though that it's comming down to judging a person on writing skills/ability.
I agree that one needs to watch spelling when comminiting online. In fact, a good tip is to use the spell check on the Google tool bar. It works pretty well when remembering to use it!
Being disabled, I can talk with anyone I want. My physical appearance is hidden, as is my speech impediment. In public, however, striking up a conversation with just anyone is a bit more difficult.
Why? People see my involuntary movements, my wheelchair, hear my voice.....and I'm seen as one who has nothing to offer.
First impressions.....they're not always good.
