I find this very interesting? Has anyone else here done controlled experiments with this?

oh good greif... THIS Old Chestnut again!

 

squintz, it`s been done to death already!

and Mufin pointed out the same thing not 5 days ago too :)

Oh good greif!

it`s almost tempting to say that the next post that gets started off along or on the same lines, gets instantly trashed.

else we`ll end up with a site that`s 50% good data and the rest as this post! LOL :)

maybe if this put on the main page and made sticky for all to see, it`ll be less likely to occur AGAIN! :)))

 

as in Yes We DO KNOW about this,,, enough already! :)

I hated this thread

X_X

there was another e-mail that went around a while ago about the english language that i never saw.

 

it wasn't like this, it was about replacing the letters c (k s), qu (kw), x (ks z), ph (f), and things like that. and the farther down you read, the more letters are replaced to make a much easier language.

 

can anyone find a link to anything like that?

Heh... i actually don't know this stuff. Cool! :P

 

Thanks Squintz. it is new to me.

 

Interesting. Indeed. But why does our brain work like that? Any idea?

Who the heck spent the time to jumble those letters??

I was just thinking.

 

Maybe this is b/c of all the notes we take, and how it looks atrocious. I think teachers teaching primary grades would have this skill best since...welll...writing is barely legible

 

haha
