Actually I am a texting obsessive - I always make sure everything is spelt and punctuated fully and correctly..........

Cambridge haven't done any such research...
They have far more important things to worry about...

Does spelling matter?:
Wee halve a spelling chequer,
It came with hour pea sea.
It plainly marques four hour revue
Miss steaks wee kin not sea.
Wee strike a key and type a word,
And weight for it two say,
Weather wee ah wrong oar write,
It shows us strait a weigh.
As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long,
And wee can put the error rite
Its rare lea ever wrong.
Weave run this poem threw it,
Were shore your pleased two no,
Its letter perfect awl the weigh,
Hour chequer tolled us sew!
