953 nut 51,844 #1 Posted November 4, 2015 Give this a try, I can do it with ease, explanation below.In elementary school I had a great deal of difficulty with reading and spelling, it was determined that I had dyslexia and alternative teaching methods proved successful. As a radarman in the US Navy I was able to use this shortcoming as an advantage. While on watch we were required to write backwards on a clear plexiglass status board so the officers could read updates on our position and any nearby contacts (other ships). Several others had difficulty writing backward, not me, been doing it all my life! 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KC9KAS 4,741 #2 Posted November 4, 2015 I can read it with no problem at all.Not sure I could write backwards though. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Racinbob 10,305 #3 Posted November 4, 2015 That's pretty cool Richard. OK, how many of you just tried to write backwards? I've seen those plexiglass boards and never even gave it a thought about writing backwards. I could print but my cursive wasn't very good. Here's another one to try. I'd argue about the great mind thing though. That there ain't not me. Now that I think of it my typing looks like this. Maybe I don't have to keep correcting my typos. 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JimD 3,345 #4 Posted November 4, 2015 I've seen many of these tests on facebook and have always been able to read them easily. The mind really does see the word as a whole as long as the first and last letter are correct. Even upside down. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
