Good posts, knok. I have to say that for me, reading textese (or as Michael writes,
Textese, as if it were a whole new language unto itself) causes me to come to a screeching halt, like riding a bicycle through a patch of sand. I've actually stopped reading almost all the posts in textese.
And I haven't actually said this before, but as the forum founder and admin, I'm actually embarrassed when I see textese here. This forum is the only one that I go to that has so much on it.
