The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid, aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it dseno't mtaetr in waht oerdr the ltteres in a wrod are, the olny iproamtnt tihng is taht the frsit and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae.

I can read it just fine. I'll bet ABF can too.

Actually for this site I should have entitled it "If you can't read this you have a Strange mind".....lol

I've seen that before. Interesting.

It wasn't a fast read but it was OK. As "wdement" said it is a bit like ABF's posts.

I've seen this before on a linguistics research site. Interesting. It's not a problem for me to read it fairly quickly, but then I used to irritate the teachers when I'd read my books upside down just to annoy them.

Pretty straight forward for me. But then I come from a family where 4 out of the 8 of us can write backwards.

No bother here

the spelling and lettering matters are interesting... but let's cut to the core:
you're asking aximsite waterfountain participants if we have weird minds

Reminds me of that "Evelyn Wood Speed Reading" course I took back in H.S. I was able to get up to 1800 words-per-minute with 80% comprehension. Takes practice to do that but I'll bet the concept is similar.
