"Dyslexia is not much of an excuse. Totally blind people read books on the scale of these two by using a scanner and OCR. "

Ohhhhhhh! Save me from The Professors! Totally blind people are NOT dyslexic. They simply do not see. The messages that carry the words to the brain don't go down the same paths as they do in the dyslexic brain. EVERY person with dyslexia will have a different magic. We are not all the same, some read well, some can't write, some have words that leap around, some miss them out entirely...but many of us go off at tangents and our minds are free range...We can't be controlled because even WE can't control our minds...but more than that, we don't WANT to do things 'your way', we're quite happy with 'our way' because it makes sense...to us. :0)

You adore facts, that's great. I love that you do. But don't *insist* that I have to as well. I love the music in a different way to you, that's all. I see music. Simple as that.   I don't *insist* you see it my way.

:0) The Peasant is as important as The Professor. :0)
