Designer, developer and photographer in Michigan, doing what (little) I can to help it recover its former glory. I run my own design company, Elevated Works, my photography is at peterbaker.net, and my (old) photoblog was treemeat.com. |

This is fascinating but I’m not so sure that only 50% of people can read this as I’m yet to show one friend who can’t.
i worry that i’m dyslexic too, i cannot remember phone numbers 3 seconds after reading/hearing them. i read this...
a lot of the tech support requests that come in at work look like that so either you’re right, or I’m just used to it…...
I’m dyslexic… I read this perfectly. ;)
