This has always fascinated me. I had no problems reading this, but have seen it before and I believe the big difference between being able to read this with jumbled letters is twofold -
1. the correct letters are actually there and each word has its correct letters with it, not split or joined to the word before or after; and
2. the sentence is structured correctly, so my mind is following and expecting the logical flow of what is being said.
For me, the big difference in some of the posts here is that they do not flow, there is not a logical sequence, and the correct letters are not there.
I have really struggled to read some posts with missing letters, wrong letters for that particular word and some letters joined to the word before, or the word after, which really makes my mind come to a standstill.
I believe the exercise above is much easier to follow than some posts.
Having said all that, it is not too much of a bother to me. If I cannot make head nor tails of it, and if it doesn't inspire me enough to try to fathom it, I just move to the next post.
What fascinates me is how passionate some of us seem about this subject and how many posts it has generated
. In the great "scheme of life" it is not really a biggie.
