Completely agree with the original OP. People have a penchant for various things, and often those specializations don't translate across to different areas. I myself have a touch of dislexia, and I can't remember the last time I made a post without having to go over it several times and correct it, in spite of a fairly high typing speed. Does that make me a lesser person? Well, who knows. I don't care if it does.
