I'm dyslexic.
That just screwed me up really badly.

Posted: 7/26/04 at 9:36pmI've seen that. I have a piece of paper with that on it; I use it on my English teachers whenever they complain about someone's spelling.

What happens if there is more than one word that can be spelled with the same letters, and with the first and last letter being the same?
For example...
If I were to type "I oderr you to uinte tehm"...
What verb did you read?
"unite" or "untie"?

One vote for UNITE, one vote for UNTIE.
I think I've proven that this is flawed.
Thank you and goodnight.

"All I ask of you is one thing: please don't be cynical. I hate cynicism -- it's my least favorite quality and it doesn't lead anywhere. Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard and you're kind, amazing things will happen."
