Can you read properly form cursive writing?

Interesting. I think it's just no longer useful.

The idea of cursive-- correct me if I'm wrong-- was to make writing by hand quicker and easier by allowing you to flow in fluid strokes rather than block printing which is slow and methodical.

The thing is, we just don't write by hand as often as we once needed to. If done at all, it is rare and printing can suffice.
