Spelling IS Optional!

Hey I built (yes built) my first computer in 1977 (!), in a Nissen Hut in the wilds of Suffolk, just so I could create a spell checker!

Well here is one for those of you that have given me grief over my spelling over the years (you know who you are!).

Lifted from a friend on twitter ( RT @NMKX) here it is verbatim:

 

Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch procejt at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosnt mttaer waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter.

 

Tell me what day it is and I will tell you where I am
