Wait, what was that again?

One of the facets of my dyslexia is that it is very hard for me to pronounce things that I read. How I interpret the words I see is not how I would think they sound.
So, when I got an email inviting me to the Illuminate conference, I had to pause for a minute.
“Are those the guys who are trying to secretly take over the world, or the ones who just want it lit up more?” I asked myself as I read it.
I read it again.
You know that you want to be careful clicking on links of the world domination people. Who knows what a cookie from them would do.
But, I decided that even if the folks secretly trying to rule the world have conferences, they probably wouldn’t just email me an invitation. But, I have specified custom lighting products at several different jobs.
So, I did click the link and it is the lights people.
While I am relived that it didn’t lead to some sort of vast conspiracy plot there was a bit of “oh, it’s just lights” too.
