Whenever I post anything, I'm always aware of and take at least casual care that all the words are spelled correct and the punctuation is at least close. And I've seen some slams and complaints on other boards from obviouos English teacher when (Joe Blow) makes all those written mistakes. I just stumbled onto this neat statement on another site. I read it as fast as any well written paragraph. :lol:

Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at an Elingsh uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer is at the rghit pclae.

That is because you are supposed to use the correct letters, as long as the first AND LAST are in the right spot the rest can be totally jumbled, and your brain will still be able to decipher the general idea fairly easily.

There was a post about this way back. I will see if I can find it later...

It looks like this English University can't even use the correct letters, you would think they have someone that could proofread it and make sure they at least use the correct letters in the words.
rscheearch - research
iprmoetnt - important
