I cannot believe that about cursive writing. Didn't read the article but.............
It's a shame that people aren't proud of their own unique cursive style.

It's apparently still taught in school but not emphasized. Most homework now is typed, apparently. Everybody prints these days. A bunch of people I work with are in their 20s, and they were just discussing how they couldn't remember how to make certain letters. Had no idea.
I bet it'll be lost entirely within another generation or two.
