Jean, …I had no more trouble reading the messages in Lollie’s post than I do reading anything else. I don’t always get the first and last letter right, either, but it makes little difference. This is typical of dyslexics like us. You find a lot of it in creative fields. You find a lot of it here, too, with people who habitually move things around in their heads to see things in different ways. ………….. You’re probably very good at taking multiple choices tests. Most dyslexics are. I’d wager that dyslexics who aren’t better than average at taking tests like these either mark the answers faster than they should or simply don’t know the material well enough to take constantly educated guesses. As you know, I believe everyone has dyslexic tendencies to some extent and that it is just more pronounced in some people than in others. ………… This business of scrambling and unscrambling letters (numbers and sometimes whole words and phrases) is not really off-topic. O.J. is dyslexic. Mark Fuhrman is not. Yet ALL of Fuhrman’s two-digit number and two-letter initial bell-ringers are reversible http://www.smartfellowspress.com/bell_ringers.htm (IMPORTANT: Refresh your screen to be sure of reading the latest iteration of this work-in-progress page. The reversible letters and numbers are ). --Jasper
