Chick, from my twenty-five years in education I will tell you the above is
true. I have seen many kids with IQ well above 140 who could not spell cat.
And good spellers are hardly ever creative, just a personal observation, no
scientific facts but I know many teachers who agree with me as we have
discussed this many times, at lunch where we could talk about interesting
things like hostas but if I bring the subject up they just roll their eyes
back in their heads and give me the oh no here we go again look. N.
PS never let a spell checker loose without monitoring it.
