Brain Power

Yes!

Yes.

Yes, no problem!

I think it's going to be more than just 'certain' people!

Yes here too!

Yes - why? It's like speed reading.

Easy

It's a bit like playing the viola when you're a violinist by reading the music a third lower then playing the viola as a violin on a different string (at least I think that's how I did it)

Yes I can. I amazed myself after first seeing it then it made sense.

Yes!

I was very impressed at how the brain can decipher that (and similar but that is the only one I've seen that includes numbers) but maybe I'm easily impressed. I have some excellent images on the computer as well but can't post them on here.

I'm pleased you enjoyed the 'shock' as well sherish

Sorry - just read this as BRIAN power, and was curious .... I can read it, so my Brian is working ok

Yes!

I couldn't read all of it. Not the first time. I didn't get the "certain" until I saw Ana's post.

It gets easier the longer you look at it.

I obviously have very little brain power.

I'm ok with that.

jingl you might just be wired differently, if you see what I mean?

It's like those suduko (or whatever it is) puzzles. I just don't get them, not that I'm bothered, I'm a words person rather than a numbers one!

But give me a cryptic crossword puzzle and I'm away. Well, sometimes...

Yes - weird though.

yes..think it is because I am used to reading little children's writing!!

It demonstrates that the ability read depends not just on phonic decoding but also of context, understanding of the language/grammatical structure!

Oh, come on...it's just that all Gransnetters are incredibly brainy, that's all! (well, most, but you got there in the end, jingl! )

Blimey Penstemonn. Is that what it does?!

I thought it demonstrates how good you would have been working for the French Resistance.

Thattoo jingle

or even 'that too'!

I think I've seen that on Facebook or perhaps someone sent it to me by email. No problem either way.

Likewise anno. This one does the rounds of facebook and those round robin emails every so often and most people have no probs reading it. Especialy if you have ever taught teenagers!
