Arocdnicg to rsceearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn’t mttaer in
waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht
the frist and lsat ltteer are in the rghit pcale. The rset can be a
toatl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit pobelrm. Tihs is buseace
the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a
wlohe.

@Evan Platt: get a life please and stop teasing people who make spelling
and grammar mistakes. It was completely clear what Richard wanted to say
