I tend to think that telling computers from humans has gotten to be too difficult a problem, if this is the sample text they expect a human to translate.
I think the real answer is "requiring users to demonstrate human visual pattern recognition is not an effective way of solving whatever problem you're trying to solve, since anyone who's motivated can hire a human visual cortex for pretty cheap."
I've been to a couple of sites where I couldn't make heads or tails of the pix -- luckily, they had to comply to some disability-act or another, so they *also* had a link you could click that would read the text to you out loud, so if you can hear it you can type it. Very strange.
