I agree with Danny Yoo on this one. V. Nabokov states in the beginning of
his strong opinions that

"I think like a genius; I write like a distinguished author and I speak like
a child."

I share with V. Nabokov the last sentence. I can guarantee you that the same
happens in real-time IRC. In the mail format I can filter my own, sometimes
very muddled, thoughts, and I can at least try to polish a bit some of my
foreign english.

All the best,
G. Rodrigues
