I realised tonight I've just gone past 150 posts which I missed and would have had a mini celebration, well a glass of scotch anyway.
I like weekends and although the weather has prevented me doing what I want, it's been a relaxing day. I thought I'd share with you this conundrum, something I've seen before, but hopefully, you'll find it interesting.
About half of people can read this strange script which, on the face of it, looks like gobbledygook.

Cna yuo raed tihs? Olny 55 plepoe out of 100 can.

The explanation is in the text of course and if you can't read it, the answer is this: As long as the first and last letter are in the correct place, as long as all the letters are there, it can be read because the human mind reads the word as a whole and not the letters in turn.
