Ok Di,
Let me get this straight in my thick head. if you can read it well, then you are typoglycemic? correct?
i hope so, for a second there i thought i was going to have to change my diet.
There's a paragraph that's been past around for ages. you are asked to read it and then count the number of of(s) you see. everyone gets it wrong because the brain always skips over the word of.
interesting stuff.
A, yes, I'm thinking that the ability to decipher this paragraph means you are 'typoglycemic', ha?!!? Personally, I choose to believe it means that if I make a mistake...ha...luckily, those of you with the disorder, at least, will not even notice...haha!
I think I've also seen the 'of test' you mentioned...and likely failed it as well!!
Sheesh....I've gotten more comments on this than anything I've shared, go figure!! All in fun...I hope I gave you a chuckle! I'm happy to have one devoted reader. :))
