Don't sweat the spelling
#3
This is actually a demonstration of the dichotomy in the way English speakers read. If you look at the words in kimo's example, all the letters in every word are there, just mixed up somewhat. Those of us (including me) who read by recognizing the groups of letters breeze through this. Those who "sound out" the letters phonetically have trouble. I would love to see a version of this for a language like Spanish that is spelled phonetically. It would probably be different and interesting.

Cheers,
Jerry
