Easy to do, only two words that I had to look twice at. I have made a point of learning to read quickly, though, skimming material to find the info I need. Otherwise I couldn't do my job.

Yup LOL ~ the brain is amazing, ive seen texts like these before, and always enjoy them.

PS: i know i have a strange mind though hahaha

highlans · 11-07-2007, 01:19 AM

Yes I can read it but then I am useless at spelling so that may have helped for me.

judy · 11-07-2007, 09:06 AM

Are you kidding? I was a teacher for 20 something years! I can read the strangest things.

That is intertesting though. Thanks for sharing that.

rivermom · 11-07-2007, 09:11 AM

I read quickly through it too.

It is pretty amazing.

Judy - I didn't know you were a teacher for 20 years. Good for you!

What grade did you teach?

Mandy - I have that same mind, LOL.

DianaB · 11-07-2007, 09:27 AM

I can read it too.

11-08-2007, 11:57 AM

I think more than 55 out of 100 people can read it. I've seen others like it too, this one is a little more mixed up than the others though I think.

Gina · 11-09-2007, 05:59 AM

Yup! Im strange I can read it to...lol interesting thanks!

rivermom · 11-10-2007, 05:28 PM

I wonder if people who are dyslexic could read this? I am kinda guessing they could since it said the brain pretty much just see's the first and last letter.

I dunno.....Just another one of those things that make ya go hmmmm?

judy · 11-10-2007, 07:41 PM

That's as interesting question Sheryl. If 55% of people can read it, why can't dyslexics read more easily?

I taught just about every grade, by the way, but mostly high school. I love that age.

That's great Judy. I would think high school kids would be hard to teach. All those hormones and all, LOL. It takes a special person to be a teacher. Kudos to you!!

What percentage of the world or US population is dyslexic?

Have you ever read the book "The Vicar of Nibbleswicke" by Roald Dahl? It's about an English vicar who has "verbal dyslexia." I recommend it for those who like to laugh.
