We had a support person on my team a few years ago who would write in stream-of-consciousness. Her e-mails (and documentation) would contain no punctuation or capital letters. Just one big, continuous paragraph.

It was thoroughly unreadable.

She lasted less than a month.

The sad thing is, I was less than a year older than her. She is my generation!

I can honestly say I didn't learn grammar in school. I learned it from reading. Mark Twain, Frank Herbert, Ayn Rand, J.R.R. Tolkien--I read them all before high school.
