That's why when you proofread something you should read it right to left. It makes you look at all the letters.

I would have to agree with you Miss Jasmine. To bad that in today's world we rush at almost every thing we do that hardly anyone will invest the time required to read from right to left. The other problem is 'spell check'. We have become so lazy and lost the art of splleing.
