gargoyle,

I love the centipede poem, and I failed the Cooking/Home Science test in early high school because I put the cutlery on the wrong sides of the plate.

I was talking to someone I work with today about dyslexia (because I had posted this thread yesterday) and she reminded me that there are huge variations in the way that dyslexia shows up from one person to the next, so all of the differences we are talking about here can all come under the same term of dyslexia.

I also remembered what the man who checked me out for Irlen lenses said, that there may be a link between Chronic Fatigue Syndrome & Scotopic Sensitivity Syndrome (words moving about on the page). He also said that both syndromes can run in families.

Also I realised that often the words I mis-type occur when I use two hands on one pair of letters i.e. I just typed *realsied* so *s* is left hand & *i* is right hand, and another common one is becasue instead of *because* - *u* is right & *s* is left, etc
