It's a good thing that this forum's NOT back in my home country of Papua New Guinea where there are over 800 local languages in addition to many minor dialects. Imagine trying to effectively communicate with a neighbouring tribe over in the next valley !

As for working the brain, it's truly one piece of amazing 'equipment', as exemplified when you read the following:

Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is that the frist and lsat ltteer be at the rghit pclae. The rset can be a total mess and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Pttery amzanig huh ?

Cheers.
