I've read this before and it just amazes me how the brain can decipher it with little effort.

yes, I was able to read it just as easily as if it had been properly spelled.

i got caught up on a few words, but it was do-able. spelling is still important though. when i see a mispelled word, it irritates my brain.

Amazing isn't it. We spend all that time learning to spell, and we can read everything just fine???

Yep. It really surprised me the first time I saw that. I guess we still need to learn to spell though, so we'll know which letters to put in a word. Bummer

I agree, Merry. I'm betting that someone who is a poor speller would have a hard time reading that. So spehling is still vary emportint.
