Yup, you can judge people by their reactions to trivial typos.
Alternatively, you can form a fairly accurate impression of a person
from their inability to spell a word of one syllable correctly.
I find that a rather depressing POV given my own tendency to misspell words
or commit 'Prescott-isms' - particularly in newspostings. I'd rather judge
what people say by the content, although clarity obviously aids
understanding.
I've had more than one student who had serious problems with written
English, but were good scientists or engineers. Ditto a few of my
ex-colleagues. :-)
Slainte,
