I don't think you understand what I am saying at all, but even after I explain it you will come back and say you did.

I understand language evolves, otherwise we would still be grunting at each other like cavemen. What I am talking about is taking whole words and cramming them into an acronym which I actually don't mind, I do it myself. I mostly refer to shit like, cuz or cause instead of because or any variation or misuse of words in sentence structure. If I remember right even YOU correct people on here of there grammar skills including me at one time. "I could of" when it should be "I could have". Or even just plain using words in cases they don't fit. Irregardless, which gets said more often than the proper regardless.

That is what I refer too. NOT the free flowing and evolving language.

And if you pulled your mind out of your holier than thou attitude you would see I was taking ONE example, as i stated, which was communication. Understand that? I wasn't talking about any other part of history or technological advancements. If you didn't get it I can't help you there. Although you do seem smart enough so...
