I can't. I've deleted them.
And it is justifiable. I don't have the time to go through every single one.
I like this list a lot of the time, as I like most lists I am on, but I have
a job to go to, and things to do beyond sitting here and translating email.

In school you were probably taught to underline what you wrote, or, if you
were typing, to put it in italics or bold. I could also try something like:

-everyone-
+everyone+
_everyone_

... and I think we'd all pretty much understand what I was getting at.
It's currently a premise that I have to live with, seeing as how a bunch of
people on this list are not HTML-enabled in their email.

It's not that I don't understand the premise of sloppy grammar and
incorrectly-spelled words. It's laziness, and sometimes it comes off as a
disrespect to the reader. Why should I have to jump through hoops to enjoy
someone's point?
