My pleasure Joan, love your Oscar Wilde catch-phrase, must remember that one next time my son treats to me as though I know nothing.

Cheers

Did any of you ever read that letter that was going around some time back? I think it was from a Harvard story (I could be wrong), and every word only had the first and last letter placed correctly and all the letters in the middle were jumbled, but you could still read it perfectly. It was a study to prove that the human brain doesn't read every single letter but only the first and last letter to process a word. I thought it was amazing.

Here is the Merriam-Webster dictionary, another link that uses "spelt" as the past version of "spell" (you have to enter the term "spelt" in the query and then click on the second definition)
Or just click here
