Why Johnny can't...

Am I the only one old enough to (vaguely) remember the Reader's Digest scare-stories like, "Why Johnny Can't Read (Add, Multiply, Get a Job, Keep a Job...)? I've recently done a brief and unsystematic (and disheartening, and disillusioning) survey of some of the various internet mating sites (there must be a nicer term, but I can't be bothered to think about it).

I can, however, say this about that:

If Johnny can't spell, Johnny ain't gonna get laid...at least not by me.

We'll save our discussion of the rule of English syntax for another post, shall we?
