was a beginner once. With word Expanders & auto correct (and the dictionary), as long as someone realizes he/she doesn't know if he/she is spelling something correctly, you don't have to be such a hot speller. If you are superior, great, more time saved but not an absolute necessity.

How many people really know how to spell all those medical terms?
