Not that i really want to argue over this, but education and genIUS have as little to do with each other as you and... well, not coming off as arrogant whether you mean to or not, for example.

The point, which you so eloquently dodged, is that spelling means very little in the overall scheme of either intelligence or accumulated knowledge. People can spell as many words wrong as they please and still have very meaningful/thoughtful/poignant things to say, and you trying to debunk their arguments by pointing out that they can't spell genius doesn't go much further than a quadroplegic in a triathlon. Spelling is to the significance of an argument as fashion is to music. Superfluous, and something that the "bottom of the barrel" members of a community latch on to and attach significance to, where it does not belong.
