No, but I 'm kind of into sound reasoning n good logic.
The old non-fonetic way of spelling is good for more than 95%
of the words, in that thay r all fonetic,
but there r a few straglers that r still spelled
as Chaucer wud 've done it.
Its like carrying 10 of useless iron around all the time,
in exchange for no money,
because u forgot its in your luggage. I did that for quite a few
decades, without thinking about it,
but one of my ways of trying to help my fellow beings
is to show that there is an ez way to get the same job done
and little children shud be taught ( taut ) the better way.
I believe that people shud have the most happiness
n the least discomfort in their lives as possible,
consistent with considerations of justice;
( credit to Jeremy Bentham ).

I 've heard that for quite a few decades now,
starting with my mother and my good friends.
I think of it as being creative,
together with being libertarian ( i.e., doing whatever I dam please ).
This is AMERICA.

There's nothing in the least creative about this nonsense--teenyboppers all of the country do this all the time. You constantly show just how silly it is, though. You spell "they" as "thay," which does not represent efficiency, and has no more claim to correct depiction of the pronounciation, except in your twisted view. You spelled exchange with an "e," if efficiency were your goal, you'd have dropped the initial "e." It is neither sound logic nor good reasongin to spell "and" as "n" because you do not indicate either the vowell sound of the sound of the consonant "d." In short, it's an affectation--one of which teenyboppers are fond. It is none of the things you have claimed it to be.
