It most certainly was. It stopped working this morning Here is a sample of it. Searches were fully working, you had type and read RTL:

Thanks for the pic -- I heard about it but hadn't seen it. And was disappointed that the link didn't work any longer So thanks for the pic, at least!

It was still working when I tried it - everything was backwards, including any search results. Really impressive!

First Grade teaching

Spoiler:
A group of kids were trying very hard to become accustomed to the first grade. The biggest hurdle they faced was that the teacher insisted on NO baby talk!

'You need to use Big People words,' she was always reminding them. She asked John what he had done over the weekend?

'I went to visit my Nana.' No, you went to visit your GRANDMOTHER. Use Big People words!'

She then asked Mitchell what he had done. 'I took a ride on a choo-choo.' She said. 'No, you took a ride on a TRAIN. You must remember to use Big People words'.

She then asked little Johnny what he had done? 'I read a book,' he replied. 'That's WONDERFUL!' the teacher said. 'What book did you read?' Alex thought real hard about it, then puffed out his chest with great pride, and said, 'Winnie the Shit.'

Ha... funny.

Although, I think "Nana" is more a cultural thing than a "baby" word. My sisters in law use "Nana" to refer to their grandmother.

Nana is also a real name.

Sorry, orlok! Didn't mean to spoil the joke's effect.

It's also the name of a plant (actually quite a lot of plants as it means small or dwarf...).

Hence "We dug a hole in the garden and put a Nana in it...."

A case where the use of the indefinite article is important!

It could be the Nana and still refer to a plant. I think we've officially beaten all the fun out of Orlok's joke.
