The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid Aoccdrnig to rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Amzanig huh?

I've seen this before and was amazed at how the brain works. Now, if we could just get people to use it!
A fun reminder. I think that I saw this in grad school at some point...and I was just thinking of this the other day when I couldn't figure out how to spell a word correctly. I gave myself a lot of grace remembering this little trick.
