    This will drive you bonkers !

    Test your eyes

    ALZHEIMERS' EYE TEST

    Count every "F" in the following text:

    FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE

    SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTI

    FIC STUDY COMBINED WITH

    THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS...

    (SEE BELOW)

    HOW MANY ?

    3 ?

    4 ?

    WRONG, THERE ARE 6 -- no joke.

    READ IT AGAIN !

    The reasoning behind is further down.

    The brain cannot process "OF".

    Incredible or what? Go back and look again!!

    Anyone who counts all 6 "F's" on the first go is a genius.

    Three is normal, four is quite rare.

    I found this incredible and had to check it several times before I convinced myself there were really 6. :hmmm:

    I have seen this before and even when you know how many F's there are you still can't always see them without looking several times, I showed it round work and 1 person got it straight away but genius is the last word I would use to describe him

          *** That is interesting,so we speed read all of the time really ? the words become like mere symbols and icons and we recognise them as such,things are certainly not always as they seem. :write:
