Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer

bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the
wrod as a wlohe.

Amzanig huh?

Yer crazy, i didnt even notice they were all bent out of shap till i finished reading.

yeah, that's pretty cool. it is a bit hard to make out the big words like "PAOMNNEHAL" and "dtreemnies". also, "taotl" threw me off at first. but other than that, it was fine...

i wonder if it will be the same though for non-native speakers...

Ummm. Didnt someone post that here already? Like about 6 months or longer ago? I'm sure about it.

That is the most messed up thing I have ever seen. I was totaly shocked. Heres why. I have Dyslexia. I mess up spelling offten and never notice, cause to me it looks correct. Some times I notice when I type, but not when writing by hand. As for reading, I normally have to read a line twice in order to understand it......BUT, I read that with out a problem, then noticed what it said, read it again and slowly noticed that it was jumbled up

Please don't mess with my head again, I was all excited, I've been fighting this my whole life. I was diagnosed 6 years ago. Just think what school was like for me lol and no one ever knew

yeah thats cool, some things are more recognizable than others though

Yeah, it works for non-native speakers to.
But as you pointed out some words doesn't pass totally without problems when they are scrambled.

Another interesting thing is that according to new science our sight works in that way with everything else too.
We see some details, and then our brain puts the rest together logically. I wonder how much of what we see actually happens, and how much we don't see at all...

That is so solid! Just imagine if that's the case! If we weren't seeing tha things we see. Whoa.
I had recieved that in an email once also. I also got this one:

Psycologists use this riddle on their patients to see if they are psychotic.

There is this girl (we'll call her Jane) at her mothers funeral. While at the funeral she meets a man (we'll call him John) who was a friend of the Jane's mother. She approaches him and they begin to talk. A few minutes later they really start to hit it off when John says he must leave. They say their good byes and when Johns taking off in his car Jane realizes she didn't get his number.
Next week Jane kills her sister.
Why?

I was arguing that very thing back when we were arguing religion. Our reality is our brain's perception of what is happening. I think at that point the religion aspect of the thread was lost and became a back and forth argument between me and Kroner about absolute truth. I was saying there isn't any and Kroner says there was. You really have to read the thread to understand. There is too much to explain here.

But what you just said was something I was trying to argue back then.

I have seen that riddle before too.
Let's see if anyone can figure it out

Lenseth>

Oh. It is rare that I don't agree with Kroner and take your part, but I definately agree that a set truth doesn't exist.
It is all about discourses.

I find it interesting that a religious person shares that view though.
If a God created us, doesn't his view count as the truth?

@Andrew- Somethin like the man is the priest and she knows she'll see him at her sisters funeral....so she kills her somethin like that

The question shouldn't be 'Why?' but 'What for?', I guess.

To meet him again.

(edit)Oh, the question has already been answered...

I learned about that months about. Try to keep up Lenseth .

There is a test I found on the net...can't remember where. Anyways, there are a bunch of colors writen out before you Eg Blue Green Yellow. However they are in different colors than what the word states such as Bule will be in green, Green in red, Yellow in Blue, and Red in Purple, and so on. You are to read the words out loud, very hard to do, cause your brain see's the color and Identifies it before it does the word.

@ Lone_Wolf: Lol I figured who was one of your characters since you spell " responcibility" =))

@ll:

Yeah, the color/write override thing is really confusing, I did that a while ago =D
