Poll: The dyslexia thread

[fletch_talon]

I think some of my friends are dyslexic. All through the 3rd Star Wars prequel I could hear them mumbling the word shit. I had to keep correcting them, its pronounced Sith.

I have a learning disability of some sort. Looking at Wikipedia it just may be Dyscalculia, the understanding of theory of math but screwing up the processes of it. I find that more often then not when I think of numbers and right them down I'll write down the wrong number(for things like note taking) but I'll remember that the number written down is wrong. It's fun dialing phone numbers when someone tells them to me.

I think a have a speech version of this too. Sometimes I'll think of the perfect word I want to say but I just can't say it, and my brilliant observation is of no help to the listener.

Well, when I first opened this topic I had done so thinking it was "the anorexia thread." Does that count?

I'm more of a Dyscalculia kind of guy.

Same. Although I believe I have only a very mild case of it. Reading numbers backwards, out of order, or just plain incorrectly is really the only symptom I get.
