Spell checkers ruin language

The Secret Service affidavit that the Smoking Gun posted is interesting, not so much for the content (security begins at home, gee big surprise!) but for the glaring grammar error on the third page.

Guys, it’s “LEECH”, not “LEACH”. May I suggest some remedial English grammar classes at the junior college of your choice…

One thought on “Spell checkers ruin language”

  1. Dreadfully sorry to have to break it to you this way, old sport, but…this error appears to be one not one of grammar, but rather of spelling. My credentials as a grammar fascist are, methinks, quite impeccable, but even I must endeavor to be fair. It’s also possible that a spellchecker recognized only “leach” and forcibly altered the text. On the other hand, an error is an error!
