I was always pretty good at spelling and composition in general, but for some reason I find myself looking at words and wondering why there's a red line under them lol. Thing is, I read more than I ever did in high school (which is saying quite a bit), and my math skills likewise are better than they've ever been.
I think I'm forgetting how to language.

I recall a study...I wish I could remember what I read it in, hm, that was looking for correlation regarding deterioration of spelling skills due to the proliferation of auto-correct/auto-detect-misspellings technology over time (i.e. our life time), and if this deterioration expresses itself when those technologies are disabled or absent (i.e. in a writing a letter longhand). Or something like that. Hm.
