    do whatever ya like joost, but don't stop posting on reluct.com..

    via the Rem Koolhaas interview I found this ( http://www.icon-magazine.co.uk/i… ) story, pretty interesting, although i am not dislexic, but i know a lot of designers are:

    words: Lesley Jackson

    “Dyslexia is now cool but when I was at school I was just thick,” recalls furniture and lighting designer Terence Woodgate. “I became aware that I was dyslexic when my son was assessed for dyslexia, but I always knew something was wrong with the wiring. Letters just float around. I have to remember the whole word. I can’t construct it.

    quote:
    “Even spell checkers don’t help,” he says. “I once sent a fax to Tony Lawrence [design manager at Concord Lighting] where I meant to say, ‘this is the slimmest design I can come up with’. But what I actually wrote was, ‘this is the slimiest design I can come up with’. The thing is, it still looks OK to me!’”

    keep up the good posting..
