Should we be proud if we are the 55% who can read this, or would we be better if we were the 45% who couldnt read it???

[bluejeangirl76]

It works in other languages too, but the only one on the page I can verify that on is Spanish.

It does not work in Hebrew, which is not surprising.

That 45% probably consists of the same people who think we fought the American Civil War in Vietnam.

Only 55% of us can read that? That was easy as hell. No prob, here.

[cyndy!]

of the 45% that can't read the misspelled paragraph, what is the percentage that can read the correctly spelled paragraph?

[Babyblue]

I dont get it, whats wrong with the spelling? it looks fine to me

I can read it.

[squirt1]

Easy but it seems to resemble the language Congress uses when writing those 1100 pg bills.

[TageRyche]

I'm in the 55 percentile

[Saint John]

of the 45% that can't read the misspelled paragraph, what is the percentage that can read the correctly spelled paragraph?

That's a great point! It makes it moot if they can't read a properly spelled paragraph.
