Yes, I believe j originally posted it. I find it amazing that I can read it without any problem. I guess it is one of those quirks.

I dont think you or Tom understood "First and Last letter should be in the correct place."

Sure I see it, David... still.
It wasn't possible/isn't possible to have the first and last letter in the "correct place." -- two letter words will be spelled correctly, otherwise.
Also, I believe that the point of this is being able to read letters in words with the letters scrambled, not the placement of the last letter in a sentence.

The search feature on this site is either really easy or really annoying. I tried a variety of different ways.

Actually the placement of the FIRST letter and LAST letter are critical to the study. Two letter words would still be spelled correctly because the first and last letters must be in the correct spot.

Exactly, Blizzard... that is why I spelled "it," "ti" so it wouldn't be spelled correctly.
That's my point, Jeremy... you went back two pages... that is easier than using the search feature which is for more difficult to find posts. I would have definately found it the way you did, without question.
