According to the International Dyslexia Association:
How common are spelling difficulties?
Almost all people with developmental reading or language disabilities have great difficulty spelling. In the new definition of dyslexia, people with the condition known as dyslexia are noted to have “conspicuous” problems with spelling and writing. People can also have specific spelling disabilities — that is, they can be poor spellers, even though they are pretty good readers. These problems are very common, although no one has done an accurate estimate of the prevalence to date.

dyslexia has nothing to do with writing, spelling, math or any other school activity other than reading. there is no new definition because if there was it would be mentioned on the above website i posted. wich is made by doctors who know what they are talking about.

It's 1906, no wait I've got the wrong millenium. Is this the second or the first?

Jeeez, I'm so old I have lived in two milleniums.

14.

Once my grandpa went to this place where he had to show any sort of document or credential. The man at the desk took it, stared at it for a while, stared at my grandpop, and went to whisper something to his workmates, and then they all came back and congratulated my grandpa on keeping so young.
Apparently his birth date figured as 1025 instead of 1925!
