Actually, people, whether blind or not, should care about how they are understood. Punctuation and, to a degree, spelling, are important tools used to accomplish this. If you don't punctuate, and your spelling and grammar are horrible, even though you may not be, you appear uneducated, ignorant, retarded, stupid, or just plain lazy. You give people a very bad impression of yourself. If you don't care about your impression, that sure says a lot about you, doesn't it? Especially since the cure is so darned simple. If needed, get a spell checker from the Internet, learn to use it, and do so. Nobody will know that you are a bad speller anymore, and you've just raised people's opinion of you by such a huge jump. People will pay a heck of a lot more attention to you if they can understand your messages. If nothing else, listen to your message before sending it out. If it goes on and on with no pauses, punctuate so that it makes sense. This only takes a minute or two, and the rewards are so well worth your time and effort!
