The rset can be a total mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Amzanig huh?

Isn't this cool? :) I am sure of you hardly reacted to the fact that the letters were all in the wrong configuration, until you were like done reading it :)

Damn, this is so true! I didnt have an issue with that at all.

Its really weird, Im having to learn to read again - japanese. It's so strange going through the process of learning new alphabets consciously, in a very different way to learning to read as a child.

But I start picking out words in japanese now, and sometimes picking out words wrong because my eyes do only scan the text and not actively read it.

I wonder how well that works on people who haven't had their minds poisoned by the garbled gibberish that passes for speech on the internet. :P
