Yes it seems that I do, but you know, most of us do don't we? (The Human most of us in addition to the Dyslexic most of us). If every time you made a post on this list you were acosted by the spelling police, you might have a chip on your shoulder as well. Wait, let me make it more clear, what if every time -you- made a post, your comments (whether they be agreed with or not) were ignored, and instead someone steped in with some snide dig on your [gender]? Or any other [feature] you posses. Wouldn't you have a chip on your shoulder after a while as well? You know, having a chip on your shoulder doesn't mean there is anything wrong with you. > That's all I have so far.
