Figure this out

YA I know I have to much time on my hands but it keeps me sharp.See if you can figure this one out.
>>How Quickly can you find out what is unusal about this paragraph?It looks so ordinary that you would think that nothing is wrong with it at all-and ,infact nothing is.but it is a bit odd.Why?Iy you study it and think about it ,you may find out,but I am not going to assist you in any way.You mustdo it without coaching.No doubt,if you work at it for long,it will dawn on you.Who Knows?<<
Have fun with it

Whatever the heck all this means is beyond me! :mrgreen:

The only thing I notice really, is there is no space between punctuation and the start of the next sentence. Beyond that.... I don't care.

No idea.

There's no letter "E" in the paragraph.

Well done. I hadn't been able to spare the interest to look that deeply into it!

It was easier than reading your posts in the "Sept 11" thread

wow yeah i thought it was just meaning the lack of spaces and a few small typos

What paragraph?

there's actually one guy who wrote an entire book not using the letter "E".

My friend once wrote a 5 page history report as one paragraph. But that's not talent, just stupidity.

There's plenty of things wrong with it. What Fulghum said and. . .

. . .that.

Other than that, it's clever.

What was the book called again? With no 'E's?

it's a french book by Georges Perec called "La Disparition". I think it was written in 1969.

Don't "and" and "the" have e's in them in french? How'd he pull that off?

There's another one by Ernest Vincent Wright called "Gadsby", written in 1937. That was the one I was thinking of.
