I want to say something about cursive writing (this might seem random) .
I've seen articles saying that cursive writing is a "dead art, " that computers have destined it for oblivion and questioning whether cursive writing should be taught in schools now-a-days.

I found this online: '21 states that list cursive in their curriculum Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, ....
