After you type your post, there's this "Additional Options…" thing on the lower left of the page.  Have you ever clicked on that?  What about "Spell Check", which is to the right of the "Preview" button at the bottom of the page?

Or for that matter, how many of the buttons above the text box have you clicked on?  Anyone ever used "Insert FTP link" (lol)?

I use spell check 90% of the time - but sometimes only when I get back to it after someone has answered. I have never used additional options.

All browsers have built-in spell check these days, no?

I wish it had grammar check. I have tendency skip, articles verb transpose unnecessarily there. I think it head but not type.

Have I ever? Of course. But, as King said, I use browsers with spell check.
