I forget what that text is called, but if memory serves it is latin, originally used by printers to test...errr...something...and is quite often found online as a text filler.

Lorem ipsum is scrambled Latin, meant to be meaningless words. It is used because it distracts you from reading the text so you can docus on the design, when used in design specimens such as mock web pages, etc.

Thanks for the information, Indizine. It didn't work for me, though - all I could focus on was the text and why it was 'different'!
