I could totally read that without a problem. It explains why I never had a problem with Lee Syndrome, haha. Who else can read it?

I can read it! I've heard that first and last letter thing before...and funnily enough, I remember explaining it to my mom way back when I first encountered Lee Syndrome--that is, Lee--and was telling her about his awful spelling!

Weirrdd. :blink:

I can read it. And so can my mom. It was relatively easy to read actually.

I think that I have heard of it before, though.

I think I've reached the point where I don't even read words any longer...
I think I ran across this years ago, actually. I could read it then, but it didn't seem so revolutionary. Still doesn't. I mean, it makes sense. We often parse sentences based simply on context. You should see a computer trained to transcribe speech--it's amazing what parts of the human capacity to community are mystically inexplicable and impossible to duplicate.
