    I've seen something similar before about the Cambridge study. It is truly amazing - just reinforces that the brain can be easily fooled - due to its tendancy to make sense of things based on what it has learned.

    Mind think of what it would be like if reading meant that your read every letter - sheesh I wouldn't get beyond Chapter One.
