Yeah, saw that before. Amazing that the mind does that!
Can someone code a simple add on for word that does that to a document? Or is it not that simple?

Your mind finds a pattern and focuses on it, you do decipher the words even though your conscious might have some objections and awe’s about the esthetical side of it.

And English words are quite short in comparison, which makes it easier.
For example this is nearly impossible in Finnish.

I think a more interesting thing is that that paragraph would not be legible if one did NOT know proper English grammar to begin with. So, from my perspective, one must learn proper spelling FIRST in order to bastardize a language.
