F7F Tigercat New VC for FSX & P3D

When it comes to modern society's grasp of the English language, I must say that I am appalled. Here is an example of how poor it has become. I recently received a letter from a fellow dentist, updating me on a patient's progress. In the body of the letter, the letter "U" was substituted for "you". This other dentist cannot make the claim that English is his second language. Completely unprofessional and a failure to correctly use the English language.

Many experts believe that the use of language is a prime indicator of the current level of a culture. If they are correct, the various cultures in today's global society are in big trouble as our use of language plummets downward into the abyss. :banghead: :dizzy:

There should be a comma after 'correct' :mixed-smiley-010:

When I write or occasionally speak, I use a certain form of language or prose.

When I work with inherently buggy software....I use another form of language entirely. :encouragement:

Unfortunately, after a very short time in boot camp, I began using the "other" form of language extensively.

It's a Marine thing. I AM trying very hard to break the habit, but even after this long in the civilian, and civil, world, I still slip on occasion.

I definitely agree, however, that if the quoted professor above is correct, this civilization is in deep trouble.

Well, however you choose to speak, enjoy!
Life's too short not to.

:biggrin-new: LMFAO

I agree Jankees, the Tigercat is looking magnificent.

Oh, BTW, you spelled "know" wrong. It's spelled "no". ;)

I think the "Punctuation Police" have made their point and criticized my oversight on originally leaving out that comma enough, so please move on and criticize someone else's missing punctuation. :dizzy:

Thanks, :encouragement:
