And while I may be just a kid to you, "cannot" and "can not" were both in use when I was in school (nearly 30 years ago).

If there's a mound on this softball field, questions about F6 picking a ball up in the circle is the least of your problems. |

Besides, much of this leaving letters out crap can be blamed on baseball.
Everyone who followed baseball back in the teens and twenties knew that Wmbsgnss or whatever was that Cleveland SS 2B who turned the only triple play in WS history. Why do you think they called that one fella "Yaz". Pf course, today contractions sans apostrophes are all the rage, if you know what the f*ck I am talking about. Back when I was in media, my "shorthand" was often just leaving the vowels out. Tony LaRussa did (and maybe still does) that in almost everything he writes. BTW, I was also taught that can not and cannot were two different things. Of course, one of my teachers also banned the words "what if" in any sentence throughout my sixth grade existence. I hope she is turning on a very slow, very hot rotisserie somewhere... H*ll, if "what if" were banned, this f*k*g board wouldn't exist.
