I've seen something like that once before, like you I had no problem reading it, but it drives me crazy when I'm reading a post that actually looks like that for real, I think it's an age thing, when I was in school spelling was drilled into you, and a paper that was handed in with mis-spelled words would be graded down, if it was bad enough, you could write a report that should get an A and get an F, times have changed, we weren't allowed to use calculators for math either.

Yeah.. my old jr.high school was like that. With the spelling and the calculaters. Yet when we moved to howell Michigan it didnt matter. now if theres a few errors its not an issue. but alot and then you were graded down sense by then we all had access to a computer one way or another. So there was Spell check.
I find this funny that I can normaly read anything like that. Includng in other posts:D:P

I can read it slwoly.
It is intriguing how the mind can put things together. Sort of like listening to someone with a heavy accent; you figure it out.

I read it without a problem, although the "Elite" "net language drives me NUTS. letter and number combinaitions to create words. Very weird.

Yeah. Saw this a few years ago. The mind can recognize the word pattern as long as all the letters are there and the first and last are correct...perhaps even if only the first is correct. that's why many of the speed reading systems can work. The mind actually recognizes the letter pattern of words. Cool.

... but with speed reading, you look at whole paragraphs at a time!

I hated speed reading, it took the beauty and joy out of the the language and the fun out of the story.

It helps to read it when your Lesdyctic (Dyslectic, and yes I had to use spell check to get it right.) like me.

I could read it fine, no problem. I took speed reading in Junior High as a summer class; it was okay but I agree with Nova, it does take the fun out.
