Where have you been living under a rock there are folks who have various kinds of dyslexic.

In my day they did not have clue unless you were Rockefeller
so by the time I self discover what it was (21) from than on I was self taught.

Seems your tolerance is only for those who function like you!

I have never lived under a rock (wholly unlike a certain set of fictional golden plates under the hill Cumorah) in my life,and I was by no means verblly assaulting you for having a particular form (or forms) of dyslexia.

I am familiar with several different forms as such - including the most widely known as well as dysgraphia (in which the sufferer writes whole words with the front and back halves of the word switched or juxtaposed - for some reason this does not usually simultaneously affect the eye/brain recognition and reproduction of numbers), and I have not in these pages ever made fun of anyone for having to deal with such a limitation.

I will say you are being needlessly sensitive, because my comments had absolutely nothing to do with my tolerance, nor the lack thereof.

I identified specific elements in a specific post,calling to attention the fact that they inherently made the post unintelligible.

A more productive approach - your task, if you will - would have been to refine elements of that post - perhaps one at a time, by asking me which parts I did not understand, and then explaining your meaning to me.

I have had to do that before with things I have written, so it really has naught to do with tolerance - unless we should all be made to tolerate having a one-sided discussion with someone whose arguments we cannot grasp.

I wish you no ill will.
