Lol. One time he asked me if the "n" in cursive had one bump or two. He actually continued to print anyway because he felt more comfortable with it. Besides, he was an M.E. and they always printed everything.
What does it matter if the communication is solid?
I couldn’t imagine printing when I’m taking notes; it would just take too long. My sons have learned cursive but never use it; I hope they don’t end up having to print everything. I guess at this point cursive is almost the new shorthand.
That was a real eye-opener in the George Zimmerman trial when the witness said she couldn’t read cursive; it seems the bottom rungs in this country are so deficient in English (reading or writing it) that they’ll be forever limited.
