In response to Javier's discussion on Sea of Love & Dead Poet's Society As a lover of cinema, I was fascinated with the idea of an open forum. After receiving a few issues of CINEMA-L AUVM, however, my fascination has slowly withered and is now sinking in the residue of my disgust. Although I don't believe in censorship, I am a firm believer in communicating through the English language left somewhat intact. Having to wade through typos, grammatical errors, missing words, redundant adverbs etc. to get to the underlying message (" duh... I really liked this movie") is unfortunately, much more trouble then it's worth. Are computer discussions exempt from any attempt at clarity?
