Slpel checker

In the Era of the Internet its only a given that most people get at least half a dozen emails per day, and as a receptionist its only a given that I easily get 4 times as many per day and I have two recommendation to not have your emails be sent to the trash.

1) Do NOT type in all caps! I don't call you up on the phone and sit there and scream at you and then act confuse when you hang up on me for doing so!

2) Two words: Spell Checker!

Now granted the egg heads over at Cambridge University are convinced that you can read even the most badly spelt word so long as the first and last letter are in the right place. Can you read the below?
