I think the above work by Joris Bellenger is clever; you may have a 
different opinion; whether or not something is clever is a subjective 
judgement at best.

Now I don't get it, and I DID look it up.  Dyslexia is the inability to 
read understandingly due to a central lesion in the brain.  The above 
.sig was not meant as a joke; I was suggesting that Sven Guckes does not 
know as much as he thinks he does.  I have reason to believe that opinion 
is not unique in this group.
