    Of course we can read it, the big paragraph explains why, so obviously everybody can, not just "55" people. (rolleyes)

    I did this in Psyhcology, its all because the mind works in a certain way. As long as the first and last letters are correct you can read the word.

    Yup, that man's right When we read words we don't look at every letter, we look at the length of the word, and usually only the first and last letters, which is why that makes perfect sense
