Yeah, i've got no problems reading that - and I seem to remember it has been posted before. Deliberately that is, rather than just a load of bad spelling.

Still no excuse for lazy typing though.


Doesn't make you special either, but if you can both read and write mirror fashion then you're special with a capital P.

I was wondering about that too. Perhaps it should read, '55%'? Even so, I think that's too low a figure: I've yet to meet anyone (who is otherwise literate) who can't read text like that. My local barbers has a sign in it written like that (intentionally).

no problem. Does that make me weird. no, simply part of the 1960s reading experiment with a concept called ITA. Every poor unfortunate subjected to the then "Modern teaching methods" then had to subsequently learn to cross between real spelling and what appeared to be any old way spelling.

I had to 'suffer' ITA too for 18 months before it was abandoned - pointless bl**dy exercise
