Sent: 06 February 2007 16:09I know how much you want to feel special, but here's the
definition of "read". Your description of how you interpret
what you see falls into this definition:
Oh, no fair! You've out-pedanted a pedant! And actually I think it's
very borderline whether this definition encompasses my experience or
not. Regardless, it still takes me an order of magnitude longer to
comfortably comprehend one notation over the other, whether you call it
comprehending, grokking, or just plain reading.
And actually, no, I'd rather not be special -- then I wouldn't be
irritated by so many everyday things, or spend so much time wondering so
many people have so much trouble with so many "easy" things... ;)
Cheers!
