It's in the words

How to tell the difference between writers who use a spell-checker, and those who don't:

Those who don't, publish articles that have words in them that can't be found in any dictionary, and only your imagination—if anything—can give you clues as to what the writer really intended.

Those who do, publish articles that have words in them that certainly exist, but appear in contexts that have nothing to do with what the words actually mean.

I'm not entirely sure which is worse.
