I couldn't believe that i could actually understand what i was reading. The phenomenal power of the human mind, according to a research at Cambridge University, it doesn't matter in what order the letters in a word are, the only important thing is that hte first and last letter be in the right place. The rest can be a total mess and you can still read it without a problem. This is because the human mind does not read every letter by itself, but the word as a whole. Amazing huh? Yeah and I always thought spelling was important! If you can read this forward it.

Yeah, I can read this.
There's a few tricks concerning the power of the Human Mind in reading.
Like for example the one where an average human brain cannot process an 'F' in the word 'OF' when you're asked to count the number of 'F's in a sentence.

Yes, I've received this e-mail numerous times and just like this letter, it explains why we can read it. As long as the first and last letters are the same, it doesn't matter what order the other letters are in - crazy isn't it?

As clear as, .. . . . .um . . . jumbled letters.
I had no trouble reading this. I felt like my brain was unscrambling the words before I got to them. What a great way to start my day . . . My brain is actually functioning.
Goody for me.

That works until you get words that are similar. Like "could" and "cloud". Then you use the context clues, but still, you get the point.
