I like your post; (note that I 'm only against the few atavistic remnants of English that r not already fonetic).

There is an exhibition of memorabilia of Teddy Roosevelt
in the American Museum of Natural History that includes
handwritten messages of distorted fonetic English,
protesting his efforts to render English to be fonetic, over 100 years ago.

I am confident that we will be more successful now
(with all of the extant texting) than he was back then.

Anybody who thinks "shud" is the phonetic equivalent of "should", rather than the way it SHOULD obviously be pronounced, i.e. to rhyme with bud, cud, dud, Elmer Fudd, HUD, , Judd Hirsh, Neil Ludd, mud, pud, stud, and crud, is a fuddy-duddy, and has absolutely no conception of what "PHONETIC" means.

After some expressed objections,
I began to use woud, coud n shoud.

@BumbleBeeBoogie,
ME TOO. Bring back spellcheck. I just hate it when folks on A2k whose 1st language is not English, correct my spelling.

Do you hear me Francis?

I'll be installing Firefox on BBB's computer within the next couple of days and then attempt to teach her how to use it. This should help solve the problem of her age-related typos and spelling errors.

@Butrflynet,
Butrflynet showed me how to operate the spelling operation - works good.

@Sglass,
I have always minded it, ten years now. Plus the gun stuff, which is obsessively incessecent. Consider my politeness a willed act, which it is.

I might have a touch of OCD; just a mild case.

I hear you, Sglass.

Let me be allowed to point out that my seemingly concision and accurateness are fictitious.

They are not based in deep semantic knowledge but in a frivolous state of mind that compels me to nitpick on my friends.

I'd never try to correct you, not being qualified enough to do so.

I limit myself to suggest more widely accepted spelling ways.
