After I apologized too often for my bad typing, my sister-in-law sent me the following text to demonstrate that our brain can understand words even if only the first and last letters are correct
Yet aoccdrnig to a sudty at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn’t mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be at the rghit pclae.

Hey there - wandered over to your blog to check out your piece on rainbow tables. That was interesting, thanks!
The paragraph you featured in this post, however, has been analysed here - http://www.scribd.com/doc/7366101/Mystery-of-the-Scrambled-Words - to show that the conclusions drawn from said paragraph are spurious at best!
It's a cool trick though, right? Have a look at this one - http://urbanlegends.about.com/library/bl_card_trick1.htm - see how long it takes you to work it out ;-)
It is a very hard situation when playing the lottery and never won, or keep winning low fund not up to 100 bucks, i have been a victim of such a tough life, the biggest fund i have ever won was 100 bucks, and i have been playing lottery for almost 12 years now, things suddenly change the moment i came across a secret online, a testimony of a spell caster called DR EMU, who help people in any type of lottery numbers, i was not easily convinced, but i decided to give try, now i am a proud lottery winner with the help of DR EMU, i won $1,000.0000.00 and i am making this known to every one out there who have been trying all day to win the lottery, believe me this is the only way to win the lottery.
