Cursive writing becoming passe

This makes me a little sad. I remember how exciting it was to finally be in the grade where we were going to learn cursive writing. It was almost like a rite of passage. Or learning a code that used to be a mystery. Now there are adolescents who can barely read or write it.

I really am turning into an old fogey. I can't help but feel like we're losing something valuable. Also there are some interesting interesting studies referenced in the article that connect the physical act of writing longhand with cognitive thought processes.
