Quick Eye Exam...

 

Just do it - don't cheat!!

 

Count the number of F's in the following text:

 

 

FINISHED FILES ARE THE

RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC

STUDY COMBINED WITH THE

EXPERIENCE OF YEARS

 

 

Managed it?

Scroll down only after you have counted them!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

OK?

 

 

How many?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Three?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wrong, there are six - no joke!

 

 

 

Read again!

 

 

 

 

FINISHED FILES ARE THE

RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC

The reasoning is further down...

 

The brain cannot process the word "OF".

 

 

Incredible or what?

 

Anyone who counts all six F's on the first go is a genius

Three is normal

[Loudyboy]

Counted 6, sorry Emz Not a genius though LOL

 

Trick with any form of 'proof reading' is to read sentances backwards. It's the only way of digesting data effectively, without being scewed by the subject's contents.

Six. I've seen it before, though.

[Peggy Burke]
