This morning I was writing an email and used the word 'hadn't'. I've used contractions like that all my life but until today I hadn't thought about their use. It takes just as many keystrokes to write the word as to write the contraction, if we ignore the space. Not much savings there. It must have to do with the way the words are spoken. But if it's written... why?
Nothing scheduled for the day so I guess I'll ( a savings of one letter) read and get educated.
Contractions are Natures way of saying we're all on this flight together.
